Venous collaterals connecting contralateral venous circulation: A case report
Öz
Symptomatic pubic varicosities are rarely seen lesions in adults. These lesions may occur as a result of
obstruction in proximal venous outflow in pelvis. Complete understanding of underlying pathologic process
is mandatory before any intervention for these lesions. Unnecessary closure of these varicosities would also
remove vital collateral circulation from the lower extremity in the chronic iliac vein occlusion. Herein, we
present a female patient with pubic varicose veins which presented with crossover collaterals due to chronic
deep vein thrombosis (DVT) on left lower extremity.
