MAY-THURNER SYNDROME – A CONTROVERSIAL VASCULAR ANOMALY

Authors: Shepherd E Alexandra, Shepherd S Caterina

Abstract:

The term ‘Vascular Anomalies’ encompass both hemangiomas and vascular malformations such as Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber, Proteus and Maffucci syndromes (1). They are congenital abnormalities and malformations inherent to the endovascular intima resulting in tortuous or insufficient anastomoses or benign neoplasms.
