Abstract

We describe a case of nutcracker syndrome in a 35 year-old male that was treated with a left renal vein transposition via an open retroperitoneal approach. Our case highlights some of the advantages of the retroperitoneal approach, which may decrease the risk of postoperative complications when compared to the traditional midline abdominal transperitoneal approach. The patient agreed to publish the case details and images included below.
