Two such unusual cases are reported. One patient underwent surgery while the other, with a presumptive diagnosis of the same condition, was observed, with no complications occurring in both patients. This condition has not to my knowledge been previously reported. The increased incidence of both varicose veins and thrombosis in the postpartum period should alert the physician to the diagnosis of such conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/pgmj.69.816.820","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,12,29]],"date-time":"2008-12-29T21:25:21Z","timestamp":1230585921000},"page":"820-821","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Postpartum pain due to thrombosed varicose veins of the round ligament of the uterus"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Mohammed S","family":"Al-Qudah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, University of Jordan, Jordan University Hospital , Amman, Jordan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1993,10,1]]},"reference":[{"issue":"90","key":"ref_1","first-page":"481","article-title":"Changes in the rate of flow of venous blood in the leg during pregnancy measured with radioactive sodium","volume":"1950","author":"Wright, H.P.; Osborn, S.B.; Edmonds, D.G.","unstructured":"Wright, H.P., Osborn, S.B. & Edmonds, D.G.
