The cranial kidney vessels on both sides are located typically--the second artery on the left side is
precaval, the second vein on the left side is usually retro-aortic.

precaval mass.
Then, a 6 mL
precaval venous blood was collected, naturally coagulated at room temperature, and centrifuged at 3,000xg for 10 min at room temperature to separate the serum.
Long Jiang Zhang et al classified SANA into 3 types (Right, Left, Posterior) and 9 subtypes (
Precaval, Pericaval and Retrocaval) according to its origin and termination.
This procedure involved removing the
precaval and right and left aortic lymphatic tissue to the level of the inferior mesenteric artery.
Post-treatment evaluation in January-February 2014 (CT-scan, [sup.18]FDG PET-CT) revealed complete response (CR) to the lung--an 8-mm nodule in the apical segment of the left lower lobe (no FDG uptake), and a very good PR at the abdominal level--a 4.4-cm
precaval adenopathy with calcified inclusions (SUV max 6.0 at the postero-inferior extremity) (Figure 1).
It is generally agreed that the predominant drainage pattern from the kidney is cephalad posterior and medial, (15) and that the favored primary lymphatic drainage from the right kidney is the paracaval,
precaval, retrocaval, and interaortocaval LNs, whereas from the left kidney it is the para-aortic, preaortic, retroaortic, and interaortocaval LNs.
Double
precaval right renal artery associated with multiple left renal arteries: a rare case report.
Concluded from physiological evidence that an SA node was present near the termination of the right
precaval vein.
However the CT showed an ill-defined soft tissue density thickening involving 3rd part of duodenum with surrounding soft tissue stranding extending to mesenteric fat with mild dilatation of proximal duodenum and stomach along with enlarged
precaval nodes (Fig.
