Deep Vein Disease: Iliac Vein Compression and DVT Management

May–Thurner Syndrome (MTS), also called iliac vein compression syndrome, is a vascular condition in which the right common iliac artery compresses the left common iliac vein against the lumbar spine. Pathophysiology • The compression leads to restricted venous outflow from the left leg. • Over time, this can cause venous hypertension, scarring, and the development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the left lower extremity. • It is thought to explain why left-sided iliofemoral DVTs are more common
