Article Synopsis
- - Nutcracker syndrome occurs when the left renal vein is compressed between the aorta and superior mesenteric artery, often seen in patients who have lost significant weight; this case reports a rare instance following complex biliary surgery.
- - A 32-year-old patient with a history of laparoscopic cholecystectomy developed persistent low back pain, and a CT scan revealed nutcracker syndrome due to weight loss that reduced the aorto-mesenteric angle; anticoagulant treatment resulted in improvement.
- - The syndrome has three types categorized by the angle of compression, and significant weight loss can worsen the condition; conservative management is effective in most cases, with 60-80% of patients seeing symptom resolution.
