Fig. 3C. 57-year-old man with left lower quadrant and left groin pain
as well as high fever (39.2°C), chills, tender left flank, and hematuria.
CT was performed because of clinically suspected intraabdominal abscess. Axial
contrast-enhanced CT scan shows thrombus extending along left common iliac
vein (arrowhead) and also involving left external iliac vein and left
femoral vein (not shown). Prominent veins are seen in internal paravertebral
venous plexus (arrow) and in subcutaneous fat of anterior abdominal
wall.
