Hello doctor,
I am a 21 year old student. I recently found that I have nutcracker syndrome. I fear that it will affect my mitral valve prolapse or cause some damage to the heart, leading to stress and depression.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- Nutcracker syndrome is a condition in which the left renal vein gets compressed between two large vessels, superior mesenteric artery and the aorta.
- The compression will result in renal venous hypertension, and rupture of thin-walled veins. Hence, there is resultant hematuria and left flank pain.
- It does not cause heart problems, stress or depression.
Hope this helps.
