Zaaijer reports a case in a male sixty-two years old in w^hich the inferior vena cava was normal but there was a branch parallel to the aorta establishing a communication between the left common iliac vein and left renal vein. This undoubtedly should be considered a left inferior vena cava. It is interesting to note that there was no right kidney in this case. Flesch describes a case in which the left internal iliac vein passes supe- riorly along the aorta to join the left renal vein forming with this a.
