    Abstract:
    Nutcracker syndrome is a rare cause of hematuria due to compression of renal vein between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. This phenomenon results in renal venous hypertension and unilateral hematuria. We report a typical case of nutcracker syndrome in a male 18 year old with a characteristic clinical picture. The diagnosis was finally established by constrated computed tomography studies. We review the literature that explains this pathology.
