Abstract: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) constitutes the leadingncause of maternal mortality in the developed world.1-4 The incidence of confirmed VTE during pregnancy and puerperium ranges from 0.5 to 3.0 per 1,000 pregnancies, representing 5- to 10-fold increased risk when compared with agematched non-pregnant women.3,5 Pelvic vein thrombosis (PVT) is an important cause of VTE in the post-partum period, although few studies have investigated its incidence and clinical relevance.6,7 Furthermore, studies of VTE in the obstetrical population in the developing world are scarce8 or missing, in the case of PVT. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of magnetic resonance venography (MRV) to detect PVT in women after Cesarean (C)-section delivery. To investigate this, we performed pelvic MRV within seven days after delivery and followed women in the postpartum period.
