Left Common Iliac Vein Stenting in a Case of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome/Pelvic Pain Overlap.

Curēus 2024 Februrary
Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is mainly characterized by orthostatic intolerance and positional tachycardia although it frequently involves a myriad of non-specific symptoms that seem to overlap with existing medical conditions. Recent efforts have been made to further classify subtypes of POTS and associated conditions to better delineate underlying pathophysiology in an effort to guide diagnosis and tailor treatment. Here, we present a 22-year-old female with debilitating symptoms of POTS who reported pelvic pain on review of systems and underwent vascular ultrasound of the inferior vena cava, iliac veins, and bilateral lower extremities which revealed the characteristic left common iliac vein compression of May-Thurner syndrome prompting venous stenting which provided systemic symptomatic relief.
