Abstract

Introduction:
Ovarian vein syndrome is a rare entity of ureteral obstruction. Its pathogeny and clinical expression are highly polymorphic. The treatment gains great advances because of the development of laparoscopy.
Case Series: We reported two cases of ovarian vein syndrome occurring in two multiparous women, with unremarkable past medical history. The patients were presented with isolated right flank pain. The diagnosis was confirmed by computed tomography angiography in the two cases. Ovarian vein ligation was successfully performed throughout a retroperitoneoscopic approach with excellent outcomes. Conclusion: The ovarian vein syndrome continues to be a rare diagnosis that should be recognized. The diagnosis is mainly urographic. Owing to its simplicity, low morbidity, and good results attained, the laparoscopic approach will continue to advance the surgical management of ovarian vein syndrome. | |
