A case of the iliac compression syndrome is reported and the literature on the subject reviewed. The anatomical abnormality which may cause symptoms in this condition is a frequent radiological and necropsy finding whose significance has been the subject of considerable debate. Evidence is presented that left iliac vein compression by the overlying right common iliac artery may cause symptoms of venous hypertension in the absence of venous thrombosis. As the condition may carry a risk of iliofemoral thrombosis with subsequent major morbidity and is surgically correctable it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of all patients presenting with oedema of the left leg.
报告了一例髂静脉受压综合征病例，并对该主题的文献进行了综述。在此病症中可能导致症状的解剖学异常是一种常见的放射学和尸检发现，其意义一直是相当多辩论的主题。有证据表明，上方的右髂总动脉对左髂静脉的压迫可能在无静脉血栓形成的情况下导致静脉高压症状。由于该病症可能存在髂股静脉血栓形成的风险，继而引发严重的并发症，且可通过手术矫正，因此在所有出现左腿水肿的患者的鉴别诊断中都应予以考虑。
