Pelvic Venous Insufficiency is a topic of much debate in Congresses of our professional field. However, the more this pathology is recognized and treated in our setting, the more cases we find in which applying a standard venous embolization or stenting, treatment results in an unfavorable result. To avoid this type of results, we must carefully study the abdomino-pelvic venous circulation, establishing parallels with the infrainguinal venous circulation, and also apply IVUS technology in cases of doubt. With these two measures, we can face this pathology as a whole with very positive results for our patients.

Keywords : Pelvic venous insufficiency; IVUS; May-Thurner; Nutcracker; Pelvic varicose veins.
