ABSTRACT
The nutcracker syndrome does not occur frequently. The condition usually results from compression of the left renal vein between the superior mesenteric artery and the abdominal aorta, and leads to varicocele, flank pain and lateralizing hematuria. With a full review of the literature, we now report and discuss a case of nutcracker syndrome in which a 30-year-old female visited the emergency center for left flank pain. She experienced complete recovery after conservative treatment.
