Pelvic Vein Embolisation

Pelvic vein embolization (PVE) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat chronic pelvic pain (CPP) caused by pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS). PCS is a condition where veins in the pelvis become enlarged and varicose, leading to pain and other symptoms.

Advantages of Pelvic Vein Embolisation:

Minimally invasive: PVE is a much less invasive option compared to traditional surgery. It typically involves a small puncture in the groin and doesn’t require general anesthesia.

Faster recovery: Due to its minimally invasive nature, PVE allows for a quicker recovery time. Patients often go home the same day or after a short observation period.

Reduced pain: Studies have shown that PVE can be very effective in reducing chronic pelvic pain associated with PCS.

Improved quality of life: By alleviating pain and other symptoms, PVE can significantly improve a patient’s quality of life.

Outpatient procedure: PVE is typically performed on an outpatient basis, eliminating the need for an extended hospital stay.

Conditions treated by Pelvic Vein Embolisation:

Pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS): This is the primary condition treated with PVE. PCS causes chronic pelvic pain, pelvic heaviness, and pain during intercourse.

Pelvic varicose veins: Enlarged and twisted veins in the pelvis can be addressed with PVE.

Vulvar varicose veins: Varicose veins in the vulva can cause pain, discomfort, and swelling. PVE can be an option for treating these veins.
