We describe a case of a 17-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital for an evaluation of his recurrent postprandial abdominal pain and fatigue on exertion. He was discovered to have severe post-ductal aortic coarctation (CoA) and uninterrupted left-sided inferior vena cava (IVC) draining into the right atrium crossing anterior to the abdominal aorta. There were no signs of IVC compression. Patient symptoms improved dramatically after CoA stenting on follow up. The presence of uninterrupted left-sided IVC in this particular case created a diagnostic dilemma, and it was of great importance to know such anomaly before the procedure. This association of uninterrupted left-sided IVC with CoA is unusual, and to our knowledge, our case is the first to report such congenital association.
