| Popis: |
Nutcracker Syndrome (NCS) is characterized by entrapment of the left renal vein, leading hematuria, flank pain, and proteinuria. We evaluated the efficacy of renal autotransplantation as a curative treatment for NCS through a review and case report. 55 patients from 18 studies were analyzed, with a combined 91% success rate of symptom resolution or improvement post-autotransplantation. In our case report, a 25-year-old man with severe NCS received laparoscopic nephrectomy and autotransplant, resulting in symptom resolution at 3.1 years follow up. Further research should confirm these findings and refine patient selection criteria and surgical techniques. |
