CONT

Dans le cadre des varices pelviennes secondaires à une compression le mécanisme le plus souvent incriminé est la rétroflexion utérine. Dans ce cas le redressement du corps de l'utérus sous colioscopie permet de le voir reprendre une coloration normale en quelques instants alors que les dilatations veineuses s'affaissent.
