Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare but potentially serious postpartum complication, which occurs in 0.05% to 0.18% of pregnancies and is diagnosed on the right side in 80% to 90% of the cases [1, 2]. As OVT can mimic acute abdomen it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of postpartum acute abdomen. We present a case of a 29-year-old female who presented a diffuse abdominal pain, fever and vomit on her third postpartum day. Her computed tomography demonstrated left ovarian vein repletion defect compatible with the presence of a thrombus. She was treated with enoxaparin and antibiotics, which lead to a resolution of the thrombus. Our case highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment of OVT in order to prevent morbidity and mortality.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

A clinical case of thrombosis of the right ovarian vein in the postpartum period - an extremely rare pathology in which acute appendicitis is often suspected due to the identity of the symptoms of the diseases. Performed laparoscopy, during which a large fragment of a thrombosed vein was excised. Conclusion. Extensive right ovarian vein thrombosis with a normal hemostasiogram could not only not be resolved by anticoagulants, but also potentially spread to the renal veins and inferior vena cava, increasing the risk of pulmonary embolism. Key words: vein dissection, laparoscopy, postpartum period, ovarian vein thrombosis

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare medical disorder, which is most often found in the immediate postpartum period. OVT is rarely considered idiopathic. We report a case of idiopathic OVT with pulmonary embolism in a 33-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain. Computed tomography and postoperative pathology confirmed the diagnosis of idiopathic OVT. To date, only 12 cases of idiopathic OVT have been reported. In this case report, we present a summary of these cases and a review of literature regarding management of idiopathic OVT.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Introduction. We presented two cases of late presentation of ovarian vein thrombosis postpartum following vaginal delivery and cesarean section within a short period in our institution. Both of them had pelvic pain following their deliveries which was associated with fever and chills. One of them was quite a big-sized thrombophlebitic vein which was about10×6×5centimeters following a computed tomography. They were both treated initially for urinary tract infection, while a large ovarian vein thrombosis was not diagnosed in the second patient until her emergency department admission.Conclusion. Ovarian vein thrombosis is rare, but could present late, and difficult to diagnose, hence, should be considered as a differential diagnosis in a postpartum woman with fever and tender pelvic mass.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

A healthy 38-year-old woman, with no significant medical or surgical history, was referred to the gynaecology emergency department with acute low quadrant abdominal pain and nausea. On examination, painful palpation of right iliac fossa, abdominal guarding and positive Blumberg’s sign were noted. An abdominal-pelvic CT scan showed a hypodense tubular structure with peripheral enhancement to the right of the inferior vena cava, suggestive of thrombosis of the right ovarian vein. The only risk factor identified was the use of the combined contraceptive pill.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare cause of abdominal pain, is an entity most commonly diagnosed after pregnancy. It is also associated with gynecological malignancies, caesarean deliveries, abortions, hypercoagulability and pelvic inflammatory disease. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is warranted to avoid serious complications [1]. We report the rare case of idiopathic ovarian right vein thrombosis.
