Abstract:
Puerperal ovarian vein thrombophlebitis is a relatively rare postpartum complication that may result in serious complications. The syndrome may be diagnosed through exploratory surgery or diagnostic imaging, although the best method remains unclear. In one case, open laparoscopy yielded a swift diagnosis and ensured prompt treatment without necessitating further diagnostic studies.
