Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) commonly occurs during the peripartum and postpartum period. However, few cases of idiopathic OVT unrelated to pregnancy have been described.
We report a case of a previously healthy, 32-year-old female who presented with chronic right-sided abdominal pain. Abdominal and pelvic gadolinium-enhanced MRI showed a right OVT. The patient was not in the peripartum or postpartum period. Thrombophilia test results were negative, and no risk factors for thrombosis were noted. The patient received warfarin for 6 months, with resolution of her symptoms.
The presented case emphasizes the significance of considering OVT as a cause of unexplained abdominal pain in a young female. We describe a rare case of idiopathic OVT with a unique presentation.
卵巢静脉血栓形成（OVT）常见于围产期和产后。然而，与妊娠无关的特发性OVT病例报道较少。
我们报告一例32岁既往健康女性，出现慢性右侧腹痛。腹部和盆腔钆增强磁共振成像显示右侧OVT。该患者并非处于围产期或产后。血栓形成倾向检测结果为阴性，未发现血栓形成的危险因素。患者接受华法林治疗6个月，症状缓解。
该病例强调了将OVT视为年轻女性不明原因腹痛病因的重要性。我们描述了一例具有独特表现的罕见特发性OVT病例。
