A SCP é responsável por 16-31% dos casos de dor pélvica crônica, sendo diagnosticada sobretudo na terceira e quarta décadas de vida.

“…One in five women presenting with varicose veins have reflux of non-saphenous origin, with the associated pelvic vein reflux present in one in six [10]. The differential diagnosis should include endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ovarian tumors, bowel pathology, fibroids, pelvic organ prolapse, urologic pathology, and porphyria [5,6]. A case of PCS initially misdiagnosed as a hydrosalpinx was also reported [11].…”

Its etiology is poorly understood as it considered being multifactorial, but pelvic vein insufficiency plays an important role, as the name suggests.…”
