Popis: May–Thurner syndrome (MTS) is an anatomical condition of external luminal compression of common iliac vein due to a partial obstruction of the common iliac vein between common iliac artery and lumbar vertebra causes deep-vein thrombosis, venous hypertension, and chronic venous insufficiencies. In this article, we review present evidence of the clinical diagnosis and management of MTS. Here, we conducted a literature review of studies on MTS. We also reviewed different clinical features, presentation, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic procedure for this condition. Most studies mentioned the diagnosis of this condition is performed by color Doppler, computed tomographic angiography, venography, and problem-solving cases by intravascular ultrasound technique. Nonsurgical methods of management are first line, and vascular surgery is reserved for refractory cases. Multiple modalities are required to reach the diagnosis of MTS, and noninvasive intervention radiology methods are the first line of management. This review highlights the presentations of MTS and outlines diagnostic procedure and management.
