May-Thurner Syndrome: An Under-Recognized Etiology of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims May–Thurner Syndrome (MTS) is a rare vascular condition characterized by the compression of the left iliac vein by the overlying right iliac artery. This anatomical anomaly predisposes patients, especially young to middle‐aged women, to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which when it persists, leads to complications such as ...

From Negative Duplex to Phlegmasia in Minutes: Bedside POCUS Identifies Rapid Thrombosis Unmasking Underlying May-Thurner Syndrome. [PDF]
Point‐of‐care‐ultrasound revealed an evolving acute noncompressible deep vein thrombosis (asterisks) in the left lower extremity veins (right panel) that was not evident on duplex ultrasound 14 min prior (left panel; asterisks demonstrate compressed veins). The patient was treated emergently and found to have May–Thurner syndrome.

May-Thurner syndrome and iliac arteriovenous fistula in an elderly woman [PDF]
May-Thurner syndrome most commonly involves compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery and can result in leg pain and swelling as well as potentially precipitate deep venous thrombosis. These symptoms can be exacerbated by

May–Thurner syndrome causing deep vein thrombosis in the postoperative patient [PDF]
May–Thurner syndrome is a rare cause of left iliac deep vein thrombosis due to an anatomical variant in which right common iliac artery overlies and compresses left common iliac vein against lumbar spine.

The Hidden Threat: Chronic Urinary Retention and Thromboembolism in Underlying May-Thurner Syndrome. [PDF]
May–Thurner syndrome (MTS) is characterized by the formation of an intravenous scar or venous “spur” resulting from chronic pulsatile compression of the left common iliac vein (LCIV) by the right common iliac artery (RCIA) against the fourth or fifth lumbar vertebral body. This pulsatile compression creates a flow‐limiting stenosis of the LCIV, leading

May–Thurner-szindróma = May-Thurner syndrome
A May–Thurner-szindrómát a bal vena iliacát komprimáló jobb arteria iliaca communis okozza, amelynek következtében megnő a vénás trombózis lehetősége. A szerzők esettanulmányukban May–Thurner-szindrómában szenvedő fiatal nőbeteg kórtörténetét ismertetik,

Successful endovascular exclusion of an isolated iliac artery aneurysm causing “May–Thurner effect”
May–Thurner syndrome is a well-recognized entity, often described as the right common iliac artery (CIA) compression of the left common iliac vein (CIV), however, other configurations are possible.

A case of May-Thurner syndrome [PDF]
May-Thurner syndrome is a condition that results from narrowing of the left common iliac vein lumen due to pressure from the right common iliac artery as it crosses anterior to it.

May-Thurner syndrome: can it be diagnosed by a single MR venography study? [PDF]
PURPOSEWe aimed to evaluate the longitudinal stability of left common iliac vein (LCIV) compression by the right common iliac artery on magnetic resonance venography (MRV).
