Abstract

The Ovarian Vein Syndrome was first reported in 1964, yet its existence as a true pathophysiological entity remains controversial. It may present as an acute or chronic disease, typically affecting young, multiparous women. This review discusses the literature to date on this poorly recognised cause of ureteric obstruction and pelvic pain, including developments in the diagnosis and management of this eminently treatable condition.
