Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare condition most frequently associated with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), malignancy or the immediate postpartum period. This case study reports on a 56-year-old woman who developed OVT 11 days after a positive COVID-19 diagnosis. Imaging including abdominal/pelvic computed tomography, transvaginal Doppler ultrasound and transabdominal pelvic ultrasound failed to definitively diagnose the thrombotic etiology of the patient’s presentation. Ultimately, laparoscopic visualization and subsequent oophorectomy were necessary for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The patient did not have underlying malignancy, recent surgical history, history of PID or any history of previous thromboembolic events. Therefore, this report contributes further evidence to the growing knowledge of systemic manifestations associated with COVID-19 that may require surgical intervention.
