Postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis

Abstract

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
