Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We present a case of a 36 year old woman with varicose veins of the uterine cervix diagnosed during the second trimester. The cervical tissue was completely replaced with dilated venous plexus. Therapeutic decisions were further complicated by the presence of blood clots within the dilated vessels. Pregnancy proceeded uneventfully, and no bleeding occurred. The patient underwent a planned cesarean delivery. This is the first reported case in medical literature where the rare phenomenon of cervical varices was accompanied by thrombosis.
