“…Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is well established to be caused by pelvic venous insufficiency [1]. Nearly 40% of the thirty percent of patients with chronic pelvic pain are due to PCS [8]. The prevalence of chronic pelvic pain among women aged 18 to 50 is about 43% in the whole world population [9,10].…”

“…Primary pelvic insufficiency includes congenital or acquired ovarian vein insufficiency from non-obstructive causes. Secondary pelvic insufficiency can be caused by conditions such as nutcracker syndrome or May-Turner syndrome, in which the outflow of the ovarian or pelvic veins may be obstructed [1,8].…”

We report a case of Dunbar syndrome, May–Thurner syndrome and Nutcracker syndrome diagnosed in one patient with clinical presentation and imaging findings on Doppler ultrasonography. Dunbar syndrome or truncus coeliacus compression syndrome is an under-diagnosed vascular compression syndrome with a lot of controversy around it because of insufficient differentiation from celiac artery stenosis. May–Thurner syndrome or iliac vein compression syndrome is an anatomically variable condition of venous outflow obstruction caused by extrinsic compression by the right common iliac artery as it crosses the iliac vein anteriorly. In Nutcracker syndrome due to compression the outflow from the left renal vein into the inferior vena cava is obstructed. The combination of all these syndromes in one patient was not described before.

Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS) is an overlooked condition affecting millions of women worldwide with chronic pelvic pain. Nutcracker syndrome (NCS) is an uncommon cause of PCS, which develops due to compression of the left renal vein, resulting in pelvic venous hypertension. Its association with May–Thurner syndrome (MTS), which refers to compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery, is an extremely rare clinical entity, which may lead to further worsening of the symptoms arising out of pelvic venous congestion. We report a middle-aged female having concomitant posterior NCS and MTS leading to PCS, which was managed by endovascular percutaneous intervention.
