Endovascular treatment of iliac vein compression syndrome (May–Thurner)

Abstract: May-Thurner syndrome is a rare condition that results from narrowing of the left common iliac vein (CIV) lumen due to pulsatile compression from the right common iliac artery (CIA) as it crosses anterior to it. We present a case of 24-years old female with left lower limb deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Duplex ultrasonography revealed extensive left-sided DVT. Magnetic resonance venogram suggested DVT with left CIV being compressed by right CIA. Pharmaco-mechanical catheter directed thrombolysis-thrombectomy fol… Show more

“…24,41,65 However, venography is typically not performed unless thrombolysis is anticipated, owing to its invasive nature and postprocedural complications (eg, phlebitis). 66 Besides venography, other imaging techniques, such as multidetector computed tomography (CT) scans, 15,41,[67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83] magnetic resonance venography (MRV), 23,60,[84][85][86][87] and intravascular ultrasonography, 16,[88][89][90][91][92][93] have been used to image iliac venous compression and are described in Table 2.…”

“…Вместе с тем всегда следует учитывать такой этиологический фактор СТВП, как синдром Мея-Тернера, адекватная коррекция которого обеспечивает успех лечебного процесса и безрецидивное течение послеоперационного периода [3,8]. В настоящее время доказано, что эндоваскулярное стентирование -наиболее эффективный способ восстановления проходимости подвздошных вен при синдроме Мея-Тернера [15][16][17]. В случае сочетания СТВП и компрессии левой общей подвздошной вены предпочтительнее первым этапом выполнить эндоваскулярное стентирование, затем -вмешательство на гонадных венах [3].…”
