Confluence of the right internal iliac vein into a compressed left common iliac vein

Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 2015
The authors describe the abnormal confluence of the right internal iliac vein into a left common iliac vein compressed by the overlying right common iliac artery. The prevalence of this combination of abnormalities, evaluated in cadavers and in living subjects by CT, was 0.9%.

Iliac Veins Are More Compressible Than Iliac Arteries: A New Method of Testing [PDF]

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2019
Incompressibility implies that a tissue preserves its volume regardless of the loading conditions. Although this assumption is well-established in arterial wall mechanics, it is assumed to apply for the venous wall without validation. The objective of this study is to test whether the incompressibility assumption holds for the venous wall.

Common iliac vein compression syndrome occurring in siblings

Journal of British Surgery, 1973
Abstract Two sisters displaying the common iliac vein compression syndrome are reported. It is suggested that this syndrome may be congenitally determined, which would explain the increased familial incidence of deep-vein thrombosis.
