Successful Salvage of a Renal Allograft after Acute Renal Vein Thrombosis due to May-Thurner Syndrome
A 68-year-old Caucasian female with a past medical history of a deceased donor kidney transplant four months prior was admitted with a two-day history of anuria and acute kidney injury. A renal ultrasound demonstrated thrombus in the transplanted kidney's renal vein that extended into the left iliac vein as well as into the left femoral venous system. Catheter-guided tissue thrombolytics were i...
متن کاملMay-Thurner Syndrome With Pulmonary Embolism as the First Presentation Rather Than Deep Vein Thrombosis.
May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) is a rare disease that causes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in young females (age 20 to 50). DVT is caused by mechanical obstruction of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery resulting in stasis rather than a primary hypercoagulable state. Although MTS is found in 22% of cadavers, it causes <5% of lower extremity venous disorder. Greater than 70% com...
متن کاملMassive Deep Vein Thrombosis Underlying Unexpected Iliac Vein Compression Syndrome (May-Thurner Syndrome) Complicated by Invasive Electrophysiologic Procedure
A 44-year-old woman, who was obese and on oral contraceptive medication, presented with recurrent palpitation to the emergency department. A 12-lead electrocardiography showed narrow QRS complex tachycardia with a short RP interval. On electrophysiology study, typical atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia was confirmed by differential pacing maneuvers, and a radiofrequency slow pathway m...
متن کاملAn Extensive Unprovoked Left Lower Extremity Deep Vein Thrombosis Secondary to an Anatomical Anomaly: A Case of May-Thurner Syndrome
May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) also known as Cockett's syndrome is a rare condition responsible for 2%-3% of all cases of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). The thrombosis results from mechanical compression of the left common iliac vein against the body of the fifth lumbar vertebra by the right common iliac artery. Repetitive hyperplasia of the venous wall by compression results in spur formation that ...
متن کاملIliofemoral deep vein thrombosis after tibial plateau fracture fixation related to undiagnosed May-Thurner syndrome: a case report
BACKGROUND May-Thurner Syndrome (MTS) represents an anatomic variation of the iliac vessels, in which the left common iliac vein is compressed by an overriding iliac artery. Patients with this abnormality are predisposed to the formation of a left-sided iliofemoral deep venous thrombosis (DVT). While DVT is a familiar complication in the setting of lower extremity trauma, there are no previous ...
