Nutcracker Syndrome
Each kidney typically has one vein that carries blood filtered by the kidney into the circulatory system. These are called the renal veins. Usually there’s one on the right and one on the left. However, there can be variations. In nutcracker syndrome, symptoms are most often caused when the left renal vein coming from the left kidney becomes compressed and blood can’t flow normally through it. Instead, blood flows backwards into other veins and causes them to swell.
