A keep‐it‐simple embolisation approach to treat pelvic congestion syndrome without compromising clinical effectiveness
The keep-it-simple approach, embolising only the refluxing ovarian and/or iliac veins, can achieve a successful clinical outcome for pelvic congestion syndrome. The extensive approach of empirically embolising all ovarian veins and internal iliac veins may not be necessary. This carries implications for potential savings in procedure time, cost and radiation dose.
