Suturing Inferior Vena Cava Injury

In this video, Dr. Jay Mehta demonstrates the suturing of the inferior vena cava during an iatrogenic injury to the vein. This structure is at risk of injury during para-aortic lymphadenectomy. A vascular clamp is applied, the site of injury is identified and a suture is placed to seal off the injury.
