Features of treatment of venous thromboembolism in patients with abnormalities in the development of the inferior vena cava. Congenital anomalies of IVC development are a rather rare pathology. The analysis of treatment results will better understand the pathophysiology of the disease and form an optimal treatment strategy. We analyzed the results of treatment of 1243 patients with venous thromboembolism from 2010 to 2022. Congenital anomalies of inferior vena cava(IVC) development were diagnosed in 2 (0.16%) patients. One patient had IVC aplasia, the other had IVC hypoplasia. Both patients had bilateral iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis(DVT). For the treatment of patients, we used anticoagulant therapy and elastic compression of the lower extremities. During the study period, venous thromboembolic complications in the form of pulmonary embolism were not recorded, fatal complications were not diagnosed. Thus, the results of treatment of patients with venous thromboembolism and anomalies in the development of IVC suggest that the use of anticoagulant therapy in this category of patients allows to obtain positive results of treatment.
