- Abstract
GRAPH: Videoclip S2 Transvaginal power Doppler ultrasound imaging of a uterine artery pseudoaneurysm in Case 2, showing whirlpool-like blood flow. Pelvic varices can be large, typically exceeding the size of UAPs, and the vessels do not communicate directly with the uterine artery (Figure 1d), although the dilated veins can envelop the uterine artery itself, complicating differential diagnosis. In this article, we illustrate the ultrasound characteristics of paracervical vascular anomalies during pregnancy and the puerperium, focusing on the presence of voluminous venous varices along the course of the uterine vessels and on pseudoaneurysms of the uterine artery (UAP).
