Динаміка змін при ультразвуковому дослідженні вен таза в пацієнтів після хірургічної корекції синдрому тазового венозного повнокров’я

and methods. The study included 35 patients which underwent surgical treatment using open surgery and endovascular procedure between April 2019 and February 2022 with pelvic congestion syndrome. All patients underwent transvaginal ultrasound of the pelvic veins before surgery. A control examination was performed after surgical treatment in 4–6 months. The examination was performed on an expert-class ultrasound system “Toshiba Aplio 500” using all international standards for transvaginal examination of pelvic veins to evaluate the changes of illiac, paraovarian, parametrial and ovarian veins from the left side and from the right side in patients with pelvic venous disorders. Conclusions. Transvaginal ultrasound of the pelvic veins can be considered one of the key diagnostic methods, with the help of which it is possible to investigate and evaluate hemodynamic disorders in the veins of the pelvis and pelvic organs in real time. Also, this method can be considered optimal for the control examination of patients who underwent surgical correction of pelvic congestion syndrome.
