Abstract
Case series data collected over the past 20 years have suggested clinical improvement of chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in women following embolization for pelvic venous disorders (PeVD). Despite this experiential data, heterogeneity in the studied patient populations, procedural technique, procedural endpoints, and clinical follow-up as well as the lack of comparator groups and the reliance on nonpatient-centered primary outcome measures have hindered the broad acceptance of PeVD treatments (1). De Gregorio and colleagues recently published a retrospective study assessing the embolization outcomes for PeVD resulting from reflux in the ovarian vein and/or internal iliac vein (IIV), which provides additional supportive data in an ongoing effort to build high-quality evidence for these treatments (2).
