We present a case with congenital absence of the infrarenal portion of inferior vena cava and lilac venous system, showing unusual venous collaterals including the left ovarian venous collateral via parametrial venous complex, and a mesenteric-periureteric venous connection. The venous collateral pathways were demonstrated by computed tomography and venography.

Orthostatic proteinuria is documented as a benign condition and the most common cause of isolated proteinuria. The etiology and pathogenesis of orthostatic proteinuria is not clear yet. Recently there were a few report that nutcracker syndrome seemed to cause orthostatic proteinuria. We experienced a case of a twelve-year-old female patient with incidently discovered orthostatic proteinuria who was suspected to have nutcracker phenomenon by doppler sonography. We confirmed this patient as nutcracker syndrome by renal venography.

Orbital venography was performed on four eyes which showed the unilateral exophthalmos and were suspected as orbital tumors. One eye was confirmed in the nature and location of tumor by the tophographic finding and tumor-staining figure of venography. One eye was confirmed in only the location of the tumor by surgery, which is consistent with the venographic picture. The other two eyes were not confirmed by surgery but we can speculate the some space occupying lesion by viewing the topogra phic findings of venography. Neither complication nor sequela was observed during or after the venographic procedures. We think orbital venography is preferably valuable for diagnosing the orbital lesion.

Intraoperative internal spermatic vein phlebography was performed in 12 primary and 3 recurrent cases of varicocele. The following results were obtained. 1. Marked dilation of the left internal spermatic vein was observed in 13 cases (87%), and retrograde flow was seen in 7 cases (47%). 2. Double or triple left internal spermatic vein was seen in 8 cases (53%). 3. Cross collateral venous circulation was noted in 6 cases (40%). 4. Intraoperative internal spermatic vein phlebography enabled to us understand the venous anatomy and the etiology of primary and recurrent varicoceles, and was an aid for the surgical removal of varicocele.

Several different techniques have been utilized for the correction of a varicocele. Urologists have operated by high ligation of the internal spermatic veins via an inguinal or retroperitoneal approach. Radiologists have embolized or sclerosed these veins by percutaneous venography. Recently, microsurgeons have diverted the internal spermatic veins. Although classical procedures for the varicocele have been used successfully to eliminate retrograde blood flow, improved techniques seen desirable because a growing list of unwanted effects have been cited in associations with these procedures. In this report, we describe a new technique(Goldstein microsurgical technique) for the management of varicoceles which combines microdissection of the cord, ligation of all the tributaries of internal spermatic vein. complete control of collateral and small cross collateral veins except the vasal vein via a low inguinal approach.

In 41 cases of patients with varicocele, a new operative method which involves a higher incision level(12th rib) than any other method used previously was performed with intra-operative venography. The following results were obtained. 1. This study has allowed us to achieve a low recurrent rate(3%). 2. On venographic findings, 13 cases(32%) showed only one internal spermatic vein without any other central collateral vein and 28 cases(68%) revealed more than two central collateral veins. The central collateral veins were found at the level of inguinal area in all 28 cases, anterior superior iliac spine in 10 cases, and at the 12th rib level in 5 cases. 3. 3 Recurrent cases after previous high ligation originated from missed central collateral veins above the level of anterior superior iliac spine. Based on the above results. We concluded that the most common etiology of recurrent varicocele seems to be residual central collateral veins and it seems to be that higher ligation sites offer better operative results. A new operative approach in this study which involved a higher level of ligation than any other approach offered high success rate. and the intra-operative venography prevented us from missing all ligation of central collateral veins.

Five cases of various parasellar lesions ; unclassified malignant tumor, neurofibroma, microglioma, granuloma and metastatic carcinoma from the lung, were determined by orbital venography while the plane skull X-ray, tomogram and carotid angiogram failed to demonstrate and lesions. The technique was described and the usefullness discussed along with a review of literature. It is emphasized the orbital venogram seemed to valuable not only for the determination of the extent of the lesions but also as a good surgical guide to the region where the anatomical complexity can easily confuse the surgeon.
