Anomalous azygos vein: a potential danger during endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy.

K Sieunarine1, J May, G H White, J P Harris.   

Abstract

A report of a patient with an azygos lobe and an associated anomalous azygos vein covering the upper thoracic sympathetic chain. This anomaly poses a significant risk during the procedure of endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy. A chest X-ray is useful in detecting this anomaly and alerting the surgeon to potential problems.
