Trial of Ovarian Vein and Pelvic Vein Embolization in Women With Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Varices (NCT06168058)
Randomized Controlled, Single-Blinded, Parallel-Group Trial of Ovarian Vein and Pelvic Vein Embolization in Women With Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Varices (EMBOLIZE) Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to see if a randomized controlled trial of ovarian vein and pelvic vein embolization versus venography alone could determine outcomes for women with chronic pelvic pain and pelvic varicose veins. The data gathered will assist in addressing changes in quality of life in patients who have ovarian/pelvic vein embolization versus no embolization.
