Postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis (POVT) is a rare yet potentially life-threatening condition that can lead to severe complications and even death. We report the case of a 38-year-old woman, para 5, who presented to the obstetric emergency department on the second day following a vaginal delivery, complaining of right iliac fossa pain, nausea, and loss of appetite. A computed tomography (CT) scan confirmed thrombosis of the right ovarian vein. The patient was managed conservatively with a treatment regimen that included antibiotics and low molecular weight heparin, followed by warfarin therapy. Remarkably, she achieved full recovery without any complications. This case underscores the critical importance of prompt diagnosis and effective management of postpartum ovarian vein thrombosis. Early intervention is essential to significantly reduce the risks of morbidity and mortality associated with this condition. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for POVT in postpartum patients presenting with abdominal pain and other nonspecific symptoms to ensure timely treatment and favorable outcomes.
