| Summary: | There are very few data in the literature describing the occurrence of venous thrombosis in children. This raises the essential problem of late diagnosis, especially in asymptomatic or pauci-symptomatic presentations where this pathology may be unrecognized.The post-traumatic context of venous thrombosis in children, reported in a few cases, should lead to the suspicion of thrombophilia and to a clinical, biological and radiological etiological assessment.We report in our work the observation of a 14-year-old girl admitted in the context of a polytrauma with minimal mechanism in whom the lesion assessment revealed an extensive thrombosis of the inferior vena cava in the supra renal area, with a review of the literature.
