ABSTRACT
Iliac vein compression syndrome (May-Thurner syndrome) is caused by compression of the left iliac vein against the fifth lumbar vertebra by the right iliac artery, resulting in impaired venous return and left iliofemoral thrombosis. We experienced a case of a 68-year-old woman who showed sudden left lower extremity edema. By the Doppler sonogram, deep vein thrombosis of left lower extremity was detected. It was involved only left side and extended to iliac vein level. In the venogram, spur like projection was noticed on left iliac vein. Through endovascular thrombectomy, thrombolysis and angioplasty, venous return was completely restored. We report a case of May-Thurner syndrome who was treated with various endovascular management successfully.
