Interventional Management of a Rare Combination of Nutcracker and Wilkie Syndromes
Nutcracker and Wilkie syndromes are rare mesoaortic compression entities, and their association is even less common. Data on interventional treatment of these pathologies are still scarce, but results from limited case series are encouraging. We report the case of a previously healthy 45-year-old wo...

description | Nutcracker and Wilkie syndromes are rare mesoaortic compression entities, and their association is even less common. Data on interventional treatment of these pathologies are still scarce, but results from limited case series are encouraging. We report the case of a previously healthy 45-year-old woman diagnosed with nutcracker and Wilkie syndromes who presented with macroscopic hematuria, intermittent pain in the left flank and hypogastric region, postprandial nausea, and unexplained significant weight loss. A successful endovascular approach with stent implantation in the left renal vein was performed, but the stent migrated toward the left kidney, and this acute complication was managed through an interventional strategy as well. At the three-month follow-up, the patient described a marked improvement in all symptoms, except for the macroscopic hematuria. As it was our strong belief that the approach was efficient, we further investigated the “hematuria”, which eventually led to the diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma. A hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy were planned, and chemoradiotherapy was initiated with the goal of preoperative tumor reduction. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case in which both Wilkie and nutcracker syndromes were effectively treated by stent implantation in the left renal vein, complicated with very early stent migration due to inadequate apposition to the less compliant venous lumen. The treatment of the duodenal compression was indirectly included in the stenting of the left renal vein, as reclaiming the venous lumen widened the aortomesenteric angle. The aim of this review is to discuss our center’s transcatheter experience with these rare disorders and explore the literature in order to establish the benefits and limitations of such an approach. |
