POSTPARTUM SUB OCCLUSION: A RARE FORM OF OVARIAN THROMBOPHLEBITIS
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PURE MEDICAL RESEARCH - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
The clinical case reported concerns a young patient who presented, after vaginal delivery, thrombophlebitis of the right ovarian vein, with an initial clinical presentation of sub occlusion. Through the literature review, we recall the pathophysiological mechanisms of ovarian thrombophlebitis and the distinct aspects visualized on imaging examinations. Yet the most often described clinical presentation remains misleading. We also emphasize the potential, but rare, severity of such a disease, characterized by the risk of pulmonary embolism, and its treatment that remains mostly medical. RESUME : Le cas clinique rapporté concerne une jeune patiente ayant présenté, dans les suites d'un accouchement par voie basse, une thrombophlébite de la veine ovarienne droite, avec un tableau clinique initial de sub occlusion. A l'aide d'une revue de la littérature, nous rappelons quels sont les mécanismes physiopathologiques de la thrombophlébite ovarienne et les différents aspects visualisés sur les examens d'imagerie, pourtant la présentation clinique la plus souvent décrite reste trompeuse. Nous insistons par ailleurs sur la gravité potentielle, mais rare, d'une telle affection, caractérisée par le risque d'embolie pulmonaire, et sur son traitement qui reste le plus souvent médical. Mots clés: post partum, èvre, thrombophlébite, sub occlusion, veine ovarienne.
