10-15 years, angioplasty and stenting of the iliac veins has gained momentum as a therapy for
chronicvenousthrombosisandthesymptomsofPTS.Raju47reviewedstudiesoniliacendovascular
intervention(angioplastyand/orstenting)noting3-5-yearstentpatencyratesinthe74%-89%range
among postthrombotic cases. Iliac intervention led toless edema, more venous ulcer healing, and
painrelief.Thestudiesdid notreportany cases ofiatrogenic PE.A systematic reviewandmetaanalysis48showediliacveinstentingforbothnonthromboticandthromboticiliacveinstenosistobe
safeandefficacious,withtechnicalsuccessratesofapproximately95%,majorbleedingupto1.1%,
PE up to 0.9%, and early thrombosis up to 6.8%. At 1-year follow-up, primary patency for
postthromboticpatientswas79%andsecondarypatencywas94%.
B.TreatmentandManagement
In patients with chronic DVT and disabling PTS, it is currently our practice to perform balloon
angioplastyfollowedbystentingtofibrosedand/orstenosediliacveins,butwerarelydeploycurrently
available stents distal to the inguinal ligament owing to potential concerns over stent fracture and
occlusion.Ifmore distal venous segments are fibrosed andnarrowed, balloonangioplasty alone (and
occasionally venous atherectomy) can be used. After venous stenting in a postthrombotic patient, we
prefer full-dose enoxaparin for the first month, after which the patient is transitioned to an oral
anticoagulantforafurther5months.Therearenorobustdataonoptimalanticoagulantstrategy.
VIII.ImagingofVenousThromboembolism
A.Ultrasound
Ultrasoundistheprimaryimagingmodalityforevaluationofvenousthrombosis.Freshthrombuscanbe
anechoic,49butlackofveincompressibilitywiththeultrasoundprobeisdiagnosticforDVT50asisthe
absence of color flow.51 An abbreviated and simple test for leg DVT is the so-called two-point
technique, where the common femoral region and popliteal veins are interrogated. More detailed
protocols,sometimesreferredtoas“wholeleg,”arealsoavailable.Thelattertechnique,althoughmore
complexandtime-consuming,diagnosesIDDVTsthatwouldotherwisebeundetectedwiththetwo-point
technique.

Computedtomography(CT)venographycanalsobeusedtodiagnoseDVTandhashighsensitivity(over
95%)andspecificity(96%)withtheaddedabilitytobetterdistinguishacutefromchronicthrombus.

In our experience, it is a good tool particularly when evaluating iliac vein or IVC thrombosis. One
challengeofCTvenographyisthepropertimingoftheimageacquisitionaftercontrastinjection.
B.MagneticResonance
Magneticresonance(MR)venographyisalsoagoodtoolforevaluationofDVT(particularlyiliacand
IVC) with high sensitivity and specificity and has the capability to distinguish fresh from residual
thrombus.

ArterialThrombosis
A.AssociatedDisorders
https://t.me/med1917

VTEandarterialthromboticdiseases(eg,myocardialinfarction[MI],ischemicstroke)havetraditionally
been regarded as separate disease entities, with different pathophysiology and therapy. There are,
however,anumberofwell-knowndisorderscharacterizedbybotharterialandvenousinvolvement,such
as heparin-induced thrombocytopenia, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, and myeloproliferative
disorders.Inaddition,thereisevidencetosuggestthatVTEmayleadtoincreasedarterialischemicevent
rates.
B.TrialsandStudies
A 20-year Danish population–based cohort studyevaluated the risk of myocardial infarctionand
stroke among 25,199 patients with DVT and 16,925 patients with PE.57 Patients with known
cardiovascular disease were excluded. Inthe firstyearafterthe thrombotic event,comparedwith
controls,DVT patientshadarelativeriskof1.60 forMI (95%CI1.35-1.91)and2.19 forstroke
(1.85-2.60). PEpatientshad a relative risk of 2.60 (2.14-3.13) for MI and 2.93 (2.34-3.66) for
stroke.RelativerisksdidnotdiffersignificantlyforthosewithprovokedversusunprovokedVTE.

I.Introduction
A.History
May-Thurnersyndrome(MTS)isasyndromeofvenousoutflowobstructionduetoextrinsiccompression
by the arterial system against bonystructures. In 1908, McMurrich first described isolated leftlower
extremityswellingduetoleftiliacveincompression.Inthiscadaverstudy,heobservedthatadhesionsof
the iliac veins were present inabout one-third ofthe cadavers studied. Of these, the vastmajorityof
adhesionsattachedtotheiliofemoralvesselswerepresentontheleftside.Thisstudythusproposedthat
adhesions could be a possible explanation for the left-sided predilection for iliofemoral thrombosis
formation that Virchow first notedin 1851. Almost 40 years after McMurrich,EhrichandKrumbhaar
performedanautopsystudythat revealed increased collagenandelastin depositionoftheleftcommon
iliac vein, causing obstruction and possibly contributing to the increased prevalence of left-sided
iliofemoralthrombosis.

B.Studies
1.AhallmarkstudywasconductedbyMayandThurnerin1957thatproposedananatomicvariantasthe
underlyingcause forincreased prevalenceofleft-sided iliofemoralvenous thrombosis.Theyevaluated
430cadaversandnoted that22% ofthe cadavers exhibitedcompressionofthe left commoniliac vein
betweenthe rightcommoniliac arteryandthe fifth lumbarvertebra. Theypostulatedthatthis anatomic
abnormalitycouldbeanexplanationforthissidepreferenceofiliofemoraldeepveinthrombosis(DVT)

MTS-associatedDVTaccountsforapproximately2%-3%ofoverallcasesoflowerextremityDVT,and
MTS has only been diagnosed in 2%-5% of patients with venous disease of the lower extremity.

However,thereareotherstudiesthatsuggestahigherprevalencethanthis.InanMRIstudyof24patients
with unilateral left lower extremity edema, 37% of these patients had evidence of MTS on magnetic
resonancevenography(MRV).7Anotherstudyonvenousregistrydatafoundthatinabout62%ofpatients

islikelyunderestimated.
III.Pathophysiology
MTS refers to extrinsic compression of the iliac venous system by an overlying iliac arterial vessel
againstthelumbarvertebrae.Inthevastmajorityofcases,thisinvolvescompressionoftheleftcommon
iliacveinbetweenthefifthlumbarvertebraandtheoverlyingrightcommoniliacartery.4However,other
variantshavebeenidentifiedandincludetherightiliacarterycompressingtheinferiorvenacava,right

venous outflow obstruction occur, usually inthe second to fourth decades of life. The locationofthe
symptoms is important to determine, as this suggests which vessels may be involved. If pain is the
primary symptom, the patient should be prompted to localizethe pain to the calf,thigh, groin,and/or
pelvis.Additionally,whenMTSandiliofemoralDVTareconsideredonthedifferentialdiagnosis,afull

B.PhysicalExamination
On physical examination, both lower extremities should be examined specifically for assessment of
edema,erythema,tenderness,skinchanges,varicoseveins,andulcers.Additionally,alllowerextremity
peripheral pulses should be palpated, and the pelvis and lower abdomen should be examined for the
presenceofvaricoseveinsoranyotherchangesconsistentwithchronicvenousstasis.Followingphysical
examination, duplex ultrasound can help determine compressibility of the common femoral vein with

V.Diagnosis
A.DifferentialDiagnosis
ClinicalsuspicionmayleadacliniciantoconsiderMTSonthedifferentialdiagnosisforunilaterallower
extremity edema,but there are many conditions that may presentsimilarly toMTS.Therefore,various
imagingtechniqueshaveprovenusefulinbothevaluatingforthepresenceofiliacveincompressionand
also excluding other possible conditions that may mimic MTS. Currently color Doppler ultrasound
(CDUS),conventionalvenography,computedtomographyimaging(CT),magneticresonancevenography
(MRV), and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) are the most commonly used imaging techniques for
evaluation of chronic venous insufficiency and possible MTS. These techniques differ in cost,
invasiveness,andtheirabilitytovisualizetheiliofemoralvessels,identifycompressionoftheiliacvein,
andruleoutothercausesofunilaterallowerextremityedema.Althoughconventionalvenographyremains
thegoldstandardfordiagnosis,theseothermodalitiesarenoninvasiveandclinicallyuseful.

1.ColorDopplerUltrasound
a. Although many imaging modalities are currently used in the workup of MTS, color doppler
ultrasound (CDUS) is the mostcost-effective and noninvasive imagingmodality for evaluation of
lowerextremity superficialanddeep veinsandistherefore commonlyusedasastarting pointfor
diagnosticimaging,withparametersdescribedbyLabropoulosetal.Theyinvestigated37patients
withlowerextremityswellingwithorwithoutpainusingduplexultrasound,venography,andIVUS
to localize and diagnose venous stenosis and define criteria for diagnosis. Using a 2-4 MHz
transducer to evaluate theiliacveins andinferior venacava, an angle ofinsonation of <60° was
appliedinB-modesettingforcomparisonofveindiameterreduction.Theyfound thatapeakvein
velocity ratio of>2.5 across the stenosis could most reliably predict thepresenceof a pressure

b. Duplex ultrasound has been a mainstay in diagnostic workup for DVT and chronic venous
insufficiency and is particularlyuseful for evaluation ofthecalf, popliteal, andfemoral veins.In
comparison,pelvicveinsaremoredifficulttovisualizewithduplexduetobowelgas,bodyhabitus,
or location of the veins with respect to the bladder or adipose tissue. Additionally, CDUS can
identify mostcasesofiliofemoralDVTbyassessingforvesselpatencybutlacks thesensitivityto
detect nonocclusive thrombosis of the common iliac vein and as a result may be insufficient to
diagnose MTS.11 In a prospective study quantifying the accuracy of duplex imaging in patients
suspectedof having DVT,dupleximagingcouldadequately assess the commonandexternal iliac
vein in only 47% of cases. For the external iliac vein alone, though, 79% of cases could be
adequately assessed, underscoring the difficultyofvisualizing the common iliac veinwith CDUS
withinthepelvis.

Additionally, CT imaging is costly, requires the use of IV contrast, is relatively contraindicated
during pregnancy, and is technicallydifficult to time in thevenous phase becauseofvariationsof
cardiacoutputandthedegreeofstenosis.9Finally,degreeofluminalcompressionmaybeaffected
bythepatient’svolumestatus,withdehydrationoverestimatingdegreeofcompression.

the pelvic vessels. MRV is also comparable to CT scan in its ability to rule out extrinsic
compressionoftheiliacveinsandisconsideredsuperioratassessingtheanatomyoftheiliofemoral
