title: [Thrombophlebitis of the left ovarian vein diagnosed by phlebocavography. Fibrinolysis in situ].
abstract: Ovarian vein thrombophlebitis is a rare condition but may be underdiagnosed because it is sometimes asymptomatic. The authors report a case of left ovarian vein thrombophlebitis complicated by pulmonary embolism, which was diagnosed by phlebography and treated by local thrombolysis.
