Degree of Left Renal Vein Compression Predicts Nutcracker Syndrome [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2018 Nutcracker syndrome (NS) refers to symptomatic compression of the left renal vein (LRV) between the abdominal aorta and superior mesenteric artery with potential symptoms including hematuria, proteinuria, left flank pain, and renal venous hypertension. No consensus diagnostic criteria exist to guide endovascular treatment.

The roles of the liver and pancreas in renal nutcracker syndrome
European Journal of Radiology, 2014To assess the frequency and significance of presence of the liver and pancreas at the left renal vein (LRV) level in patients with suspected renal nutcracker syndrome (NCS).We included 101 patients with hematuria who underwent urography three-dimensional CT between April 2009 and November 2013. These patients were divided into NCS (n=25) and non-NCS (n=

Outcomes of left renal vein stenting in patients with nutcracker syndrome
Journal of Vascular Surgery: Venous and Lymphatic Disorders, 2019Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is a rare condition that can be manifested with hematuria, flank pain, pelvic varicosities, or chronic pelvic congestion related to left renal vein (LRV) compression. Open surgery, specifically LRV transposition, has been the mainstay of treatment, but in the past few years, LRV stenting has emerged as a less invasive ...

Renal nutcracker syndrome: Surgical options
Seminars in Vascular Surgery, 2013Nutcracker syndrome is one of the abdominal venous entrapments, caused by compression of the left renal vein between the superior mesenteric artery and the abdominal aorta. Occasionally a retro-aortic left renal vein is compressed between the aorta and the vertebral body (posterior nutcracker syndrome).

Laparoscopic Left Renal Vein Transposition for Nutcracker Syndrome
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2016The left renal vein (LRV) reimplantation into the distal inferior vena cava is considered to be the gold standard of care for symptomatic nutcracker syndrome (NCS). The vast majority of these surgical procedures are performed by open surgery. Experiences with minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery in this field are very limited. We present a case of a

Posterior nutcracker syndrome with left renal vein duplication
International Journal of Surgery Case Reports, 2013 ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Posterior Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is a rare anomaly in which the left renal vein passes behind the aorta which compresses it against the vertebral column, restricting the venous drainage of the left kidney ...

Nutcracker Syndrome Due to Left Renal Vein Compression by an Aberrant Right Renal Artery
American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2007Classic nutcracker syndrome is caused by left renal vein compression between the superior mesenteric artery and aorta, leading to retrograde venous hypertension associated with such urinary abnormalities as hematuria or proteinuria. We describe a case of symptomatic nutcracker syndrome treated by means of stent placement in which hypertension in the ...
