US and MDCT diagnosis of a rare cause of haematuria in children: Posterior nutcracker syndrome.

A Ozel1, O Tufaner, E Kaya, V Maldur.   

Abstract

Posterior nutcracker syndrome is caused by compression of the left renal vein between the abdominal aorta and the vertebral column. We present the case of a 14-year-old girl with vague left loin pain, mild haematuria and proteinuria. Diagnosis of this rare syndrome was achieved using color Doppler US and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography.
