After the organs ventral side was turned up the mobilization of the liver was performed using the classical method (intersection of the falciform, triangular and coronary ligaments), which enabled us to locate the suprahepatic infradiaphragmatic IVC with the insertions of the major hepatic veins, the zone of the IVC passing through the tendon center of the diaphragm, and to evaluate the topography of the phrenic vein insertions in this area.

The falciform ligament was dissected to the ventral surface of the suprahepatic IVC to show the loose space between the right hepatic vein and the confluence of the left and middle hepatic veins.

Budd Chiari syndrome (BCS) is a rare disorder that results from hepatic venous outflow tract obstruction, occurring anywhere from the small hepatic veins to the suprahepatic inferior vena cava.
A rare case of Budd Chiari syndrome
Nephrectomy with IVC thrombectomy remains one of the most technically challenging and morbid procedure in urology.[sup.5] Adequate suprahepatic exposure and IVC control can be difficult and often require full mobilization of the liver or sternotomy with pericardiotomy.[sup.6] Exposure often requires a multidisciplinary collaboration with either the cardiac or vascular surgery services.[sup.7] Faced with this problem, we chose instead to employ straight forward endoluminal principles and techniques to gain suprahepatic IVC control.
