Abstract

De nos jours, la connaissance des anomalies vasculaires est primordiale pour tous les spécialistes en pratique clinique et peut prévenir de graves complications suite à des interventions précoces. Le syndrome de Casse-Noisette ou Nutcraker syndrome résulte d´une compression de la veine rénale gauche (VRG), généralement dans la fourchette formée par l´aorte abdominale et l'artère mésentérique supérieure (AMS), conduisant à la sténose de la partie aorto-mésentérique de la veine rénale gauche et dilatation de sa partie distale. La symptomatologie reste dominée par des douleurs lombaires, abdominales, pelviennes et hématurie. Son diagnostic est basé essentiellement sur les moyens d´imagerie moderne (tomodensitométrie, échographie-Doppler, phlébographie) et son traitement est controversé. Nous rapportons le cas d´une femme âgée de 43 ans, admise dans le cadre d´un bilan radiologique devant des douleurs épigastriques avec pesanteur pelvienne suite à un syndrome de Casse-Noisette.

Abstract alternativo:

Nowadays, the knowledge of vascular abnormalities is essential for all specialists in their clinical practice and may prevent serious complications through early interventions. Nutcracker syndrome is caused by left renal vein (LRV) compression, usually occurring in the fork formed by the abdominal aorta and the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and leading to the narrowing of the aortomesenteric portion of the left renal vein and to the dilatation of its distal portion. Symptoms are dominated by lumbar, abdominal, pelvic pain and haematuria. Diagnosis is essentially based on modern imaging tests (computed tomography (CT) scan, Doppler-ultrasound, phlebography) and treatment is controversial. We here report the case of a 43-year-old woman, admitted with epigastric pain associated with pelvic heaviness following nutcracker syndrome requiring radiological screening on admission.
