“…Nakazawa et al [ 21 ] noted compression of the left renal vein by dilated left-sided inferior vena cava. Other rare variants of NCS include right-sided NCS, which may be induced by pregnancy as a factor determining the compression of the right renal vein and the IVC [ 22 ] or by other anatomical variants like left-sided IVC [ 23 ].…”

“…Pregnancy is defining as a factor contributing to right-sided NCS by compression of large veins [1] . Left-sided IVC, hemiazygos continuation and persistent left superior vena cava combination is another rare cause of right NCS [4] . All of the anatomic mechanisms involved in renal vein compression are resulting with outflow obstruction leads to LRV hypertension with a measurable renocaval pressure gradient.…”

“…The presence of a NCS caused by the compression of a left inferior vena cava by the SMA and aorta is extremely rare, having only been reported on three occasions 8. Individuals may present with abdominal pain or pelvic congestion syndrome (dyspareunia, dysmenorrhoea and chronic pelvic pain) as a result of the inflammatory cascade triggered by venous hypertension 9. Back pain radiating to the gluteal region has also been described.…”
