Staged endovascular treatment of bilateral ruptured and intact ovarian artery aneurysms in a postmenopausal woman.
Ovarian artery aneurysms have rarely been reported in the literature, with almost all being unilateral and occurring in the peripartum period. We herein describe a unique case of a postmenopausal patient with a ruptured ovarian aneurysm and an intact contralateral aneurysm that were both successfully treated by endovascular techniques.
