Statistical analysis* F=32.649, P < 0.001; (Ps-d=1.000, Ps-o<0.001, Ps-c<0.001, Pd-o<0.001, Pd-c<0.001,Po-c=0.001) F=18.654, P < 0.001; (Ps-d=1.000, Ps-o=1.000, Ps-c<0.001, Pd-o=0.274, Pd-c<0.001,Po-c=0.393)

c indicates control group; d/dMTS, low lumbar degeneration-related May-Thurner syndrome; IVTD, diameter of the iliac vein tunnel; LLLA, lower lumbar lordosis angle; o/oIVCS, other cause iliac vein compression; s/sMTS, simple May-Thurner syndrome.

*Bofferroni test was used in the statistical correction of multiple comparisons of means.
