Duplicated inferior vena cava is a rare congenital vascular anomaly. According to the literature, its incidence is between 0.2% and 3% and it is usually asymptomatic. Here, we will present the duplicated inferior vena cava, which was seen incidentally on computerized tomography images of two male patients, one 32 years old with lumbar vertebral fracture and the other 50 years old with lumbar disc herniation.Knowledge of vascular anatomical variations is very important in preventing vital complications after retroperitoneal surgeries, venous interventional radiological procedures, deep vein thrombosis management and incomplete lymph node dissection.

Vena cava inferior duplikasyonu nadir görülen konjenital vasküler bir anomalidir. Literatüre göre görülme sıklığı %0,2- %3 arasındadır ve genellikle asemptomatiktir. Burada biri 32 yaşında lomber vertebra kırığı, diğeri 50 yaşında lomber disk hernisi nedeni ile bilgisayarlı tomografi çekilen iki erkek hastada rastlantısal olarak görülen vena cava inferior duplikasyonu sunulacaktır. Vasküler anatomik varyasyonların bilinmesi venöz girişimsel radyolojik işlemler, derin ven trombozu yönetimi, incomplet lenf nodu diseksiyonu ve retroperitoneal cerrahiler sonrası hayati komplikasyonları önlemede oldukça önemlidir.
