What is commonly seen in patients with May-Thurner syndrome?

In patients with May-Thurner syndrome, leg edema is commonly observed due to the condition's effects on venous return. May-Thurner syndrome is characterized by the compression of the left common iliac vein by the right common iliac artery, which can lead to increased pressure in the affected vein. This pressure can cause blood to pool in the lower extremities, resulting in swelling or edema in the legs. Along with leg edema, patients may experience symptoms such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or chronic venous insufficiency, further contributing to the swelling. The other options do not typically correlate with the primary manifestations of May-Thurner syndrome.
