| description | We present a case of a 37-year-old woman who exhibited symptomatic acute deep vein thrombosis (DVT) due to extrinsic compression from a giant ovarian cyst, detected during clinical examination. Doppler ultrasound confirmed a thrombus in the left iliac vein. Although surgery was initially planned to insert a vena cava filter, the absence of this resource during her 14-day hospital stay led to the decision to proceed without it. The surgery was carried out without complications, and she was discharged on the second postoperative day. A 3-month follow-up indicated favorable recovery.
