Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

The medical and surgical complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) are well-known, including deep venous thrombosis. Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare, but potentially serious type of venous thrombosis that has not previously been reported as a complication of PCNL or ureteral stent placement. We report a case of OVT associated with ureteral stenting following a tubeless PCNL. This complication was successfully managed conservatively without any short- or long-term sequelae.

SummaryFor patients with ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT), neither the rate of recurrence nor the expected survival are well established. Clarification of these natural history data would aid in defining the optimal management. We studied all female patients with OVT seen at the Mayo Clinic between 1990 and 2006. Survival, recurrent venous thrombosis rates, and prothrombotic factors were compared to a randomly selected group of 114 female patients with lower extremity venous thrombosis (DVT). Patients with OVT (n=35; mean age 44.8 ± 17.9 years) were significantly more likely to be under hormonal stimulation (48%), have an underlying malignancy (34%), experienced recent pelvic infection (23%) or undergone recent surgery (20%), compared to DVT patients. Duringa mean follow-up period of 34.6 ± 44.3 months, three patients suffered three recurrent venous thrombi (event rate: three per 100 patient years of follow-up).This recurrence rate was comparable to patients with lower extremity DVT (2.2 per 100 patient years). Recurrent thrombosis involved the contralateral ovarian vein, left renal vein, and inferior vena cava. The five-year mortality rate for OVT patients was 43% compared to 20% for DVT patients (p=0.08). All OVT deaths were cancer related. Survival was greater in OVT patients without cancer compared to those with active cancer (p<0.0001). In conclusion, venous thromboembolism recurrence rates are low and comparable to lower extremity DVT. Therefore general treatment guidelines for lower extremity DVT may be applicable. Poor survival rates in OVT are principally governed by the presence of malignancy.

Ovarian Vein Thrombosis

Although there is no other underlying disease, women can sometimes experience rare and serious diseases such as ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) and renal vein thrombosis (RVT) after giving birth. The widespread development of thrombosis is treated for the first time in this study. Stasis, coagulation factor abnormalities, and intimal damage to the venous thrombosis risk can increase during pregnancy. It was mentioned that it diagnoses an abnormality in the hypercoagulability half of women with OVT. Despite the hypercoagulant abnormality observed in pregnant women, it was very unusual that the renal vein thrombosis led to this complication. It can lead to severe complication of OVT which can even cause death. It was the first time that the renal vein and ovarian vein thrombosis were observed in the postpartum period, and there was no coagulation abnormality. It is known that the thrombus in the postpartum period can be observed with the fever of unknown origin. The problematic, but rarely observed, postpartum disease such as ovarian venous thrombosis (OVT) is generally observed in the right ovarian vein. In this disease, avoiding the resulting laparotomy heparin and intravenous antibiotics is best solution for the patient. If it is to be noted a fever for unknown reasons, that it be 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.

Abstract Objectives Postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis (POVT) is a rare pathology that can lead to severe complications such as sepsis, extension of the thrombus leading to organ failure, and pulmonary embolism. It therefore requires early recognition and prompt treatment. Case presentation A patient with right POVT presented four days after delivery with acute right-sided abdominal pain and fever. Appendicitis was initially considered, before an abdominal-pelvic computed tomography raised the suspicion of POVT, subsequently confirmed through transabdominal ultrasound. Antibiotics and anticoagulation were initiated, with rapid clinical improvement and complete resolution of the thrombus three months later. Conclusions Diagnosing POVT is challenging as it clinically mimics other more frequent conditions. It is rare but life-threatening and should be considered in all females presenting with abdominal pain and fever in the postpartum period.
