Ovarian or Hypogastric Vein Embolization

This is an effective solution for women who experience pelvic pain due to pelvic congestion syndrome, a condition in which varicose veins form in the uterus or ovaries. We use imaging technology to locate the varicose veins and insert a catheter through a tiny incision in the groin to access the femoral vein. We inject a synthetic medication that causes the vein to close. The vein will no longer function, and blood flow will be redirected to healthy veins.
