Successful left gonadal vein to inferior vena cava bypass for symptomatic May-Thurner syndrome

We report the management of symptomatic May-Thurner syndrome refractory to endovascular techniques with left gonadal vein to inferior vena cava bypass. The patient's presentation was exceptional—a young individual with end-stage renal disease status post four failed kidney transplants, dwindlin...
