The nutcracker syndrome results from compression of the left renal vein between the superior mesenteric artery and the aorta. We present the first reported case of symptomatic left renal vein compression treated with balloon angioplasty and stenting with the Vici stent system.

Oulu Center for Cell-Matrix Research, Biocenter Oulu and Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, University of Oulu, P.O. Box 5000, FI-90014 Oulu, Finland.
A novel microfluidic platform was designed to study the cellular architecture of endothelial cells (ECs) in an environment replicating the 3D organization and flow of blood vessels. In particular, the platform was constructed to investigate EC defects in slow-flow venous malformations (VMs) under varying shear stress and flow conditions. The platform featured a standard microtiter plate footprint containing 32 microfluidic units capable of replicating wall shear stress (WSS) in normal veins and enabling precise control of shear stress and flow directionality without the need for complex pumping systems.

To explore the value of vessel wall MRI (VW-MRI) in the preoperative assessment of T3 renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) with varying degrees of longitudinal venous system invasion. Patients with RCC with pathological T3 stage between January 2016 and December 2023 were included in this retrospective study. All the patients underwent contrast-enhanced CT (CECT), conventional MRI (con-MRI) or VW-MRI.

Background: Adrenal Vein Sampling (AVS) is the gold standard for categorizing primary aldosteronism (PA). However, catheterization of the right adrenal vein (RAV) can be technically challenging. This study aimed to investigate the validity of the right renal vertebral contour as fluoroscopic landmarks to help RAV orifice localization during AVS.
