摘要: The use of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) in routine abdominal explorations has increased the detection nutcracker phenomenon, defined as left renal vein (LRV) compression by adjacent anatomic structures. embryology and anatomy phenomenon are relevant a background for syndrome, rare cause hematuria well other symptoms. MDCT examples collateral circulation (gonadal, ureteric, azygous, lumbar, capsular) aortomesenteric (anterior) retroaortic (posterior) phenomena patients with no urologic complaint shown studies performed on gross uncertain origin. Incidental observation veins draining LRV asymptomatic may be sign compensating phenomenon. Imbalance between development lead to symptomatic syndrome.
