Title: Laparoscopic inferior mesenteric to gonadal vein end-to-side bypass: a new attempt for nutcracker syndrome treatment. Author: Chen M, Liu N, Chen S, Liu J, Sha G, Zhu W, Xu B. Journal: Ann Vasc Surg; 2015 Aug; 29(6):1321.e9-1321.e11. PubMed ID: 26072721. Abstract: The nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is because of the compression of the left renal vein when it passes between the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery. The treatment of NCS is controversial, and conservative, endovascular stent implantation, open surgical, and laparoscopic treatments have been previously described. In this study, we present a new method of conducting end-to-side anastomosis between the inferior mesenteric and left gonadal vein. The proposed method was proven feasible for treating NCS.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
