May-Thurner syndrome, also known as iliac vein compression syndrome, is an anatomically variable condition that is characterized by left common iliac vein compression by the right common iliac artery and the lumbar vertebra. This chronic and pulsatile venous compression by the right common iliac artery can cause local intimal injury, inflammation, scarring, and fibrosis, leading to venous outflow obstruction and increased intraluminal pressure. This can cause several complications, such as venous insufficiency, venous claudication, deep vein thrombosis, and very rarely extraperitoneal hematoma due to spontaneous iliac vein rupture. In particular, in middle aged women, hormonal imbalance coupled with these mechanical and inflammatory factors can cause further weakening of the venous wall integrity and develop spontaneous and potentially lethal venous rupture. This paper reports an extremely rare case of a 58-year-old woman with May-Thurner syndrome with acute and extensive deep vein thrombosis of ...

Several different surgical approaches have been advocated to alleviate or bypass the compression, but few reports exist of successful treatment using interventional techniques. The authors report three cases of left common iliac vein thrombosis caused by May-Thurner syndrome in two women aged 51 and 36 years, and one man aged 56 years. The two women had long histories of left leg swelling, with recurrent episodes of left iliac venous thrombosis; the man had acute symptoms and no previous history of venous thrombosis or leg swelling.

This patient presented with extensive left lower limb DVT that extended into the pelvis. CT abdomen/pelvis demonstrated compression of the left common iliac vein by the overlying right common iliac artery, consistent with May-Thurner syndrome.. May-Thurner syndrome is deep venous thrombosis resulting from chronic compression of the left common iliac vein (CIV) against the lumbar vertebrae by the overlying right common iliac artery (CIA). Although both left and right CIVs lie deep to the right common iliac artery, the left CIV has a more transverse course and is predisposed to compression whereas the right CIV ascends more vertically and is therefore not similarly predisposed. First line treatment is with thrombolysis and stenting, which removes the clot and relieves the compression to prevent recurrence.. Credit: Dr Donna DSouza. ...

A 72-year-old man suffering from congestive heart failure, swelling of the lower limbs and hematuria was transferred from another hospital with a diagnosis of large aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and the left common iliac artery. Iliac arteriovenous fistula (AVF) was definitively diagnosed preoperatively by contrast-enhanced CT and angiogaphy. At operation, an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm of 8cm and left iliac arterial aneurysm of 12cm were identified. After proximal and distal aortic clamping, the aneurysm was entered and an AVF orifice of 1cm communicating with the left common iliac vein was disclosed at the right posterior wall of the left common iliac artery. Venous blood reflux was controlled by inserting an occlusive balloon catheter to the fistula and intraoperative shed blood was aspirated and returned by an autotransfusion system. The AVF was closed from inside the iliac aneurysm by three interrupted 3-0 monofilament mattress sutures with pledgets. The aneurysms were resected ...

They then assessed post-thrombotic syndrome at the five-year follow-up period using the Villalta scale.. A total of 209 patients were randomised in the period between 2006 and 2009. The mean age of patients was 51.6 years (standard deviation [SD], 16.8 years), and 38% were women. The mean duration of symptoms was 6.5 days (SD, 16.8 days). Nearly 50% of patients had an involvement of the pelvic veins.. The investigators had 60-month follow-up data on clinical status for 176 patients (89 control patients who had conventional therapy and 87, who underwent catheter-directed thrombolysis). Thirty-seven patients recruited for additional catheter-directed thrombolysis developed post-thrombotic syndrome as compared with 63 in the control group (p,0.001), including four in the catheter-directed thrombolysis group and one in the control group with severe post-thrombotic syndrome. This corresponded to an absolute risk reduction of 28% and a number needed to treat of four.. The CaVenT study is the first ...

Köksoy told ESVS delegates that, in terms of early clot removal, each modality has its advantages and disadvantages. He added, Pharmacomechanical thrombectomy refers to catheter-directed administration of a fibrinolytic drug directly into the venous thrombus with concomitant use of catheter-based devices to macerate the thrombus and speed thrombus removal. Pharmacomechanical thrombectomy can enable complete on-table removal of a thrombus in a single, one- to three-hour procedure, reducing the overall thrombolysis infusion time, dosage and length of stay.. He said that there have been observational studies but no randomised trials in this area. No single pharmacomechanical thrombectomy method is clearly superior to others. Catheter-directed thrombolysis with long lytic infusions is likely to be less efficient and less safe than pharmacomechanical thrombectomy and most endovascular surgeons or interventionalists prefer faster pharmacomechanical methods that use lower doses of tPA and ...

It could be a real long shot, but Ill mention it anyway. There is a condition called May-Thurner syndrome. It is when the right iliac artery compresses the left iliac vein against the spine. This causes the blood to congest in the left leg because it can not normally pass the compression on its way back to the heart. It dos not necessarily results in the pain at the compression site (if it does it gives a lower back pain), most often it causes pain or swelling or both in the left leg. If you have a compression like this, after a while your circulatory system is trying to develop alternative veins. They are called collateral veins. Most often there are transpelvis collaterals (horizontal ones from left to right in pelvis), but some patients can develop them near the spine or even inside it. Then it can give pressure on nerves and give numbness and tingling sensation in legs. Another typical symptom is ambulating pain, the pain moves around depending on where the pressure is high at the moment. ...

What have the results shown?. The goal was clearly not to try to show differences in patency rates or to suggest that any stent was better or worse than others, but was rather to distillate specific features and thereby help manufactures develop improved designs. All the stents have specific pros and cons. We looked at a number of factors-ease of deployment, positioning, whether the device straightens, how much it straightens, how strong is it, how much radial force it exerts, and whether the integrity of the stent might suffer.. Looking at the Vici stent, we could see it is a very strong stent, with a sufficient surface area, performing well in May-Thurner syndrome patients, with good stent integrity. When you put pressure on the vein you do not see indentation of the stent. This differs from the Zilver Vena device, which is weaker as it does not have a closed cell design. However, the Zilver Vena stent is very flexible, does not foreshorten and stent deployment is reliable. Ease of deployment ...

In the present study, several interesting and relevant results were found. Gender dimorphism was found to be one of the effects of housing rats in IVCs compared to CCs. In addition, housing male and female rats in IVCs was observed to increase water intake and decrease food intake. Furthermore, the internal cage temperature of IVCs was higher than that of CCs.. The lower food intake of male and female offspring housed in IVCs and absence of differences in body weight between the experimental groups indicates lower energy expenditure in IVCs. Living organisms continuously expend energy, and the rate varies with activity, ambient temperature, and many other factors 12. The lower energy expenditure can most likely be explained by the higher temperatures observed in IVCs, leading to lower food intake among the rats housed in these cages.. Water intake did not differ between the male offspring groups, whereas for female offspring, the water intake was higher in the IVC group than in the CC group ...

The veins that we treat with EVLT will stay closed with a success rate of 95 to 98%, long-term. If your leg pain and discomfort are caused by venous insufficiency, then EVLT will result in significant improvement in pain and discomfort in over 80% of patients. If your concern is that of leg swelling, the following is what we have observed: After EVLT, the pain and discomfort and the pressure associated with your swelling in the leg will improve in greater than 80% of the time. But the disappearance of swelling will depend on the nature of your swelling, such as the cause of your leg swelling above and beyond the refluxing veins (such as obesity, heart/liver/kidney conditions, etc.), the duration of your leg swelling, etc. In some patients, the appearance of swelling does not return to normal even though the pain and discomfort is alleviated. ...

Swelling in the legs (edema) is a very common condition that many people have. Understanding the cause of your swelling is key to optimal treatment.

Shorter travelers ( less than five five) and taller ones(over six one) seemed at greater risk and- perhaps surprisingly- so did younger folks (less than 30 years of age). So, it seemed best to not be too young, short or tall. Some speculations regarding vein compressions in the short and not enough room for the legs in the tall seemed plausible but why younger travelers. The investigators suggested that one of the many epidemiological traps for the unwary might be in play.This may be an example of the attrition of the susceptibles. Individuals who are susceptible to a given event are likely to experience it soon after the start of exposure.The younger travelers likely had not been doing long haul flights for very long while the older employees had and those with clotting tendencies may have been deselected-i.e. no longer traveling or perhaps even taking prophylactic measures ...

Background. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a public health problem with an annual incidence of 1 per 1000. Besides the acute risk of potentially fatal pulmonary embolism or phlegmasia cerulea dolens, these patients are at increased risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism, and in the long term 20-40% of them develop a post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). PTS mainly develops in patients with DVT affecting the ilio-femoral veins, adversely affects the quality of life and causes important health care costs to the society. Theres evidence that the early removal of the obstructing thrombus reduces the risk of developing a PTS, and a higher degree of thrombolysis is associated with lower incidence of PTS, better quality of life and lower risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism. Therefore, in addition to standard anticoagulation therapy, the latest international guidelines recommend catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) as first-line treatment for patients with ilio-femoral DVT and low bleeding risk. CDT ...

Improvements in the design of endovascular devices and technical skills of interventionalists have opened new possibilities for patients with a wide range of peripheral vascular diseases. In lower extremity peripheral artery disease, percutaneous treatments have become the predominant revascularization strategy for simple and complex lesions. Newer generations of stents and drug-coated balloons have demonstrated strong potential in the treatment of femoropopliteal and infrainguinal diseases. One of the most dramatic advances in the recent past has been endovascular repair of thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms, which has become the preferred approach in lieu of open surgical repair. Contemporary trials have established the safety and effectiveness of carotid stenting in selected patients with severe stenosis. Endovascular treatments for venous occlusive disease have long been underutilized, but their effectiveness is being increasingly recognized. This review covers new endovascular procedures

There have been 2 main treatments for acute pulmonary embolism (PE)-anticoagulant therapy alone or systemic thrombolytic therapy. Although systemic thrombolytic therapy is effective at preventing deaths from PE, it markedly increases bleeding, including intracranial and fatal bleeding (1). The recent PEITHO (Pulmonary Embolism Thrombolysis Study) (2), which compared tenecteplase with placebo in 1,000 PE patients without hypotension but with right ventricular dysfunction, found no clear net benefit from systemic thrombolytic therapy; the reduction in cardiovascular collapse (odds ratio: 0.30) was offset by the increase in major bleeding (odds ratio: 5.2). Consequently, systemic thrombolytic therapy is usually reserved for PE patients with hypotension (3). The ability to actively remove thrombus in patients with acute PE without increasing bleeding would be an important advance. Catheter-based therapy has that potential.. Catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) was initially developed for treatment ...

The gastroduodenal artery is tied and the donors common iliac artery Y graft is used to connect the pancreas graft arteries into one arterial stump. The native recipient pancreas is not removed.. A recipient midline laparotomy is performed. The graft is usually placed in the pelvis (similar to a kidney transplant), with the graft arterial Y graft implanted on the right common iliac artery and the pancreatic venous stump draining into the recipient IVC. If a SPK is performed, the kidney graft will then get implanted on the recipient left iliac vessels.. The non-physiological nature of the reconstruction results in insulin by-passing the hepatic first pass metabolism and hence can cause systemic hyperinsulinemia.

Twelve volunteer subjects had controlled external compression of the median nerve at the carpal tunnel at a level of forty, fifty, sixty, or seventy millimeters of mercury. The subjects were then monitored for thirty to 240 minutes with four sensory tests: two-point discrimination, moving two-point discrimination, Semmes-Weinstein pressure monofilaments, and vibration. Sensory and motor conduction, subjective sensations, and motor strength were also continuously tested. The threshold tests (vibration and Semmes-Weinstein monofilament testing) consistently reflected gradual decreases in nerve function in both subjective sensation and electrical testing, while ...

BACKGROUND: After deep venous thrombosis (DVT), many patients have impaired quality of life (QOL). We aimed to assess whether pharmacomechanical catheter-directed thrombolysis (PCDT) improves short-term or long-term QOL in patients with proximal DVT and whether QOL is related to extent of DVT. METHODS: The Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (ATTRACT) trial was an assessor-blinded randomized trial that compared PCDT with no PCDT in patients with DVT of the femoral, common femoral, or iliac veins. QOL was assessed at baseline and 1 month, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months using the Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study on Quality of Life/Symptoms (VEINES-QOL/Sym) disease-specific QOL measure and the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary general QOL measures. Change in QOL scores from baseline to assessment time were compared in the PCDT and no PCDT ...

PURPOSE: The development of a symptomatic lymphocele (SL) is a frequent postoperative surgical complication after kidney transplantation. It may lead to pain and discomfort and cause transplant malfunction or even secondary graft loss. A large cohort of renal recipients was investigated to identify the possible risk factors for SL. METHODS: All renal transplant patients of a single centre were retrospectively analysed for SL between January 2010 and December 2017. The SL group was compared to a control group from the same cohort. RESULTS: 45 out of 1003 transplanted patients developed an SL (incidence 4.5%), on average 50 days after kidney transplantation. SLs developed more in older patients, in those with a PD catheter and in ADKDP as primary diagnosis. Surgical predictors for SLs were venous anastomosis on the external iliac vein, concomitant PD catheter removal, perfusion defects, shorter operating time, splint , 7 days, double J stenting, discharge with drain, low initial drain production ...

Retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) is a rare disease characterized by proliferation of an abnormal fibroinflammatory tissue, which usually surrounds the infrarenal portion of the abdominal aorta, inferior vena cava and iliac vessels. This process may extend to neighbouring structures, often entrapping the ureters or other abdominal organs [1]. Its pathogenesis is not well established, there are two main theories: the first one propose that RF is an exaggerated inflammatory reaction to atherosclerosis aortic disease induced by LDL lipoproteins. The second one says that RPF is a manifestation of an autoimmune systemic disease [2 ...

General comments. CT or MRI scans will occasionally detect an incidental iliofemoral DVT, PE or intra-abdominal thrombosis (IVC, portal, splenic, mesenteric or renal vein). This is particularly common in cancer patients undergoing staging CT scans. When such an incidental, asymptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) is discovered, the question arises whether the patient should be treated with anticoagulants or not.

The amount of radiation used during a venogram is considered minimal; therefore, the risk for radiation exposure is very low.. If you are pregnant or suspect that you may be pregnant, you should notify your physician. Radiation exposure during pregnancy may lead to birth defects.. Because contrast dye is used, there is a risk for allergic reaction to the dye. Patients who are allergic to or sensitive to medications, contrast dye, or iodine should notify their physician.. Patients with kidney failure or other kidney problems should notify their physician. In some cases, the contrast dye can cause kidney failure, especially if the person is taking Glucophage (a diabetic medication).. Notify your physician if you have a history of bleeding disorders or if you are taking any anticoagulant (blood-thinning) medications, aspirin, or other medications that affect blood clotting.. For certain individuals, a venogram may be contraindicated. These include persons with a known allergy to contrast dye, ...
