  ABSTRACT: Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare thrombotic condition commonly attributed to the puerperium. The complications of OVT can be significant, and diagnosis relies on a high clinical index of suspicion. It can occur with lower quadrant pain that may mimic a surgical abdomen, especially in the setting of recent pregnancy, abdominal surgery, inflammatory disease, or malignancy. Diagnosis can be made with confidence using ultrasound, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging. Management of OVT is particularly important in postpartum patients, with anticoagulation therapy being the treatment of choice.
