This article presents the case of an 11-year-old boy with end-stage renal disease who had kidney transplantation (KT). At presentation, he was found to have a large superficial vein running from the left groin over the suprapubic area. The arterial pulsation of both lower limbs was preserved, and there was no pedal edema. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed aplasia of the right common iliac vein, stenosis of the left common iliac vein, and marked dilatation of the left external and internal iliac veins. There were also varicosity of numerous pelvic veins and a collateral vein draining the right lower limb. This preoperative diagnosis was key to planning for surgery. On KT surgery, the renal allograft vein was anastomosed in an end-to-side fashion to the inferior vena cava and artery to the common iliac artery. The patient had a smooth postoperative recovery and continues to enjoy a normal renal function.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/aam.aam_39_20","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,18]],"date-time":"2022-03-18T10:25:58Z","timestamp":1647599158000},"page":"98-101","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Congenital Bilateral Iliac Vein Anomalies in a Nigerian Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipient"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Martin Chukwudum","family":"Igbokwe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kester O.","family":"Maduadi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olalekan Olayinka","family":"Olatise","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abayomi","family":"Aremu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vasanth","family":"Revanur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"358","DOI":"10.1258\/rsmvasc.13.6.358","article-title":"Successful surgical management of pelvic congestion and lower extremity swelling owing to absence of infrarenal inferior vena cava","volume":"13","author":"Zhou","year":"2005","journal-title":"Vascular"},{"key":"R2-17-20240831","first-page":"102","article-title":"Kidney transplantation in a developing economy: Challenges and initial report of three cases at Ile Ife","volume":"51","author":"Badmus","year":"2005","journal-title":"Cent Afr J Med"},{"key":"R3-17-20240831","first-page":"21","article-title":"Agenesis of common iliac vein encroaching development of inferior vena cava","volume":"7","author":"Padamjeet","year":"2014","journal-title":"Int J Anat Var"},{"key":"R4-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"883","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejrnm.2016.05.003","article-title":"Congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava and iliac veins: A cross-sectional study by multi-detector computed tomography","volume":"47","author":"Mohamed","year":"2016","journal-title":"Egypt J Radiol Nucl Med"},{"key":"R5-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"162","DOI":"10.1258\/phleb.2011.011080","article-title":"Absence of the right iliac vein and an unusual connection between both common femoral veins","volume":"28","author":"Yahyayev","year":"2013","journal-title":"Phlebology"},{"key":"R6-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1169","DOI":"10.1007\/s00404-010-1803-8","article-title":"Congenital retroperitoneal vascular anomalies: Impact on pelvic surgery","volume":"284","author":"Strauss","year":"2011","journal-title":"Arch Gynecol Obstet"},{"key":"R7-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"735","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.138.4.735","article-title":"Normal variations in iliac venous anatomy","volume":"138","author":"Lotz","year":"1982","journal-title":"AJR Am J Roentgenol"},{"key":"R8-17-20240831","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S167","DOI":"10.1067\/mjd.2003.160","article-title":"Phakomatosis pigmentovascularis IIb with hypoplasia of the inferior vena cava and the right iliac and femoral veins causing recalcitrant stasis leg ulcers","volume":"49","author":"Park","year":"2003","journal-title":"J Am Acad Dermatol"},{"key":"R9-17-20240831","first-page":"1137","article-title":"Congenital hypoplasia of the right common iliac artery in a renal transplant recipient","volume":"21","author":"Al Midani","year":"2010","journal-title":"Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl"},{"key":"R10-17-20240831","first-page":"2","article-title":"Congenital absence of infrarenal inferior vena cava and deep veins of the lower limbs: A case report","volume":"10","author":"Abhishek","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Med Case Rep"}],"container-title":["Annals of African Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/aam.aam_39_20","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,19]],"date-time":"2026-08-19T19:08:39Z","timestamp":1787166519000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/aam.aam_39_20"}},"subtitle":["A Case Report and Literature Review"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,1]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/aam.aam_39_20","relation":{},"ISSN":["1596-3519"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1596-3519","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,1]]}}}
