Fig 1 Ultrasound findings on preoperative evaluation can give insight into underlying iliac vein compression. The first image (A) demonstrates compression of the left common iliac vein (LCIV-no color) at the level of the right common iliac artery (RCIA-blue). The right common iliac vein (RCIV-blue below) and left common iliac artery (LCIA-yellow) are also seen in this image. The second image (B) is a long axis gray scale image of the compressed LCIV to the left of the image at the level of crossing by the RCIA and the normal size vein distally to the right. Image (C) demonstrates increased velocities near the site of compression with continuous flow during normal respiration. Image (D) shows continuous flow and lack of response to distal compression.
