Prevalence of gynecological disorders in women with symptomatic pelvic venous disorders
The prevalence of concomitant gynecological disorders in women with symptomatic PVI is very low and calls into question whether or not gynecological assessments for etiologies other than PVI are necessary. Even in women with a history of endometriosis, endovascular interventions are very successful at ameliorating pelvic and/or leg symptoms. A history of concomitant gynecological disorders should not prevent the performance of endovascular therapies in women with symptomatic PVI.
