Figure 5. MDCT angiography. In this axial reconstruction, we can see the 2 compressions of the LCIV caused by the right and left common iliac arteries and the measurements (dashed lines) of the minimum distance between the vertebral spine and the aforementioned vessels. Long arrow indicates the osteophyte of the fifth lumbar vertebra; short arrow indicates the LCIV. MDCT – multidetector computed tomography; LCIV – left common iliac vein.
