Renal hematuria caused by "nutcracker" phenomenon: a more logical surgical management.
A case of renal hematuria caused by the "nutcracker" phenomenon in a young man is reported. Resection of a preaortic fibrous tissue, renocaval venous reimplantation, and placement of a synthetic wedge into the bifurcation of the superior mesenteric artery were performed to resume an unstagnant flow of the left renal vein.
