Round ligament varicosity is rare and mainly reported during pregnancy. A systematic review of the literature identified 48 relevant studies reporting a total of 159 cases of round ligament varicosity, 158 of which were associated with pregnancy. Where reported, the mean age of the patients was 30.65 years, and 60.2% were of Asian ethnicity. The laterality of the condition was almost equally distributed, and nearly 50% presented with a painful groin lump. More than 90% of the patients were diagnosed via Doppler ultrasound scan of the affected groin. Conservative management was successful in more than 90% of the patients. Associated maternal complications are rare, with no mortality reported. No fetal complications or loss were reported. Round ligament varicosity can be misdiagnosed as a groin hernia, which may lead to unnecessary surgery during pregnancy. Therefore, increased awareness of this condition among clinicians is important.
