What Are Abdominal Vascular Compression Syndromes

Abdominal Vascular Compression Syndromes (AVCS) are a group of vascular conditions involving the compression of major blood vessels and of/by arteries of the abdomen, which can cause issues with blood flow and sensations of pressure and pain. Among the general population (and the greater medical community, in many cases), these syndromes remain under-recognized. Many patients go years or decades before receiving a proper diagnosis, going through a plethora of medical specialists, appointments, and anguish. 

DISCLAIMER: I am not a medical professional. I have been a patient with vascular compression syndromes, who was diagnosed after over a decade from onset of symptoms at a young age and seeing dozens of medical providers.
