Abstract
- When patients revisit hospital after delivery because of fever and lower abdominal pain, the diagnosis of ovarian vein thrombosis should be considered. If fever dose not fall promptly even with aggressive intravenous antibiotics therapy, a ultrasound or a CT scan should be obtained for prompt diagnosis and therapy. We report a case of postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis that detected by a CT scan and treated successfully with anticoagulation therapy.
