초록

배경: 하지심부정맥 혈전증의 원인으로 알려져 있는 May-Thurner증후군(혹은 장골정맥 눌림증후군)의 임상 증상, 진단 및 혈관내 치료에 대해 분석하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2001년 3월부터 2003년 7월까지 May-Thurner증후군으로 진단 받은 12명의 환자들을 대상으로 하였으며 진단방법으로는 정맥조영술, 정맥초음파, 혈관조영 컴퓨터 단층촬영을 이용하였고 혈관내 시술은 혈전용해술, 혈전제거술, 혈관성형술, 혈관내 스텐트삽입 등을 시행하였다. 결과: 임상양상으로는 하지부종이 4예, 하지의 통증이 1예에서 보였으며 5예에서는 하지부종과 통증이 동반되었고 하지부종과 통증과 압통이 동반된 경우도 1예였다. 1예에서는 부종이나 통증은 없었으며 하지정맥류로 인해 시행한 정맥조영술에서 May-Thurner증후군이 발견되었다 진단방법으로는 임상양상과 더불어 1예를 제외하고는 모든 환자들이 정맥 조영술과 혈관조영 컴퓨터 단층촬영을 시행하였고 이중 4예에서는 정맥 초음파를 시행하였다. 혈관성형술을 11예에서 시행하였고, 혈관내 스텐트 삽입은 10예, 혈전 제거술은 9예, 혈전용해술은 7예에서 시행되었다. 9예에서 추적관찰을 하였고 이중 7예에서 혈관내 원활한 혈류의 흐름을 관찰할 수 있었다. 결론: 하지의 심부정맥 혈전증 환자에 있어서 May-Thurner증후군의 가능성을 충분히 인식하여야 하며 이의 진단을 위하여 다양한 방법이 필요하며 치료 방법으로는 혈관내 시술이 안전하면서 효과적이라고 생각된다.

Background: There are limited number of reports on May-Thurner syndrome (Iliac vein compression syndrome) in Korea, We analysed the clinical features, diagnostic modalities and endovascular treatment of May-Thurner syndrome. Material and Method: We reviewed 12 cases of May-Thurner syndrome between March 2001 and June 2003. Mean age was $57.6\pm2$ years. We were used in venography, color doppler and computed tomographic angiography as diagnostic modalities and in thrombolysis, thrombectomy, angioplasty and stent insertion as endovascular treatment. Result: Clinical features showed edema of lower extremities in 4 patients, pain of lower extremities in 1 patient, edema with pain in 5 patients, and all in 1 patient. In one patient, he did not have any pain and any edema of lower extremities but was diagnosed as May-Thurner syndrome using venography due to varicose veins on lower extremities. Diagnostic modalities included venography, computed tomographic angiography in all patients with clinical presentation except in one patient and color doppler was only performed only in 4 patients. Four kinds of endovascular treatment were performed for May-Thurner syndrome, angioplasty in 11 patients, stent insertion in 10 patients, thrombectomy in 9 patients and thrombolysis for 7 patients. Nine patients were followed up and we can show good blood flow in Left iliac vein for 7 of 9 patients. Conclusion: it is necessary to recognize the possibility of May-Thurner syndrome in Deep vein thrombosis patients and we should use a variety of modalities to diagnose May-Thurner syndrome. Finally, endovascular treatment is a safe and effective therapy for May-Thurner syndrome.
