A member asked:

Ct scan - prominence of the external and common iliac veins, femoral and ivc. ivc measures upto 3.6cm. why is this considered significant? pain/nausea

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May not be: This probably is not significant. These veins could be dilated if there is a massive clot preventing flow back to the heart. This would be a very unusual situation, and you would have severe pain. Best to talk to your doctor to find out more. Hope this helps!
