  2. Pelvic compression syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelvic_compression_syndrome

    While one may expect the female to have an equal prevalence of pelvic compression syndrome due to the identical embryological origin of the valveless pampiniform plexus, this condition is thought to be underdiagnosed due to the broad differential of the pain pattern: unilateral or bilateral pain, dull to sharp, constant to intermittent pain worsening with any increase in abdominal pressure.

  3. Varicocele - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_cataract

    For optimal visual development in newborns and young infants, a visually significant unilateral congenital cataract should be detected and removed before age 6 weeks, and visually significant bilateral congenital cataracts should be removed before age 10 weeks. [1]

  6. Uterine venous plexus - Wikipedia

    The uterine plexuses lie along the sides and superior angles of the uterus between the two layers of the broad ligament, and communicate with the ovarian and vaginal plexuses.

  7. Cataract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract

    Bilateral cataracts in an infant due to congenital rubella syndrome. Signs and symptoms vary depending on the type of cataract, though considerable overlap occurs. People with nuclear sclerotic or brunescent cataracts often notice a reduction of vision. Nuclear cataracts typically cause greater impairment of distance vision than of near vision.

  8. Batson venous plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batson_venous_plexus

    The Batson venous plexus (Batson veins) is a network of valveless veins in the human body that connect the deep pelvic veins and thoracic veins (draining the inferior end of the urinary bladder, breast and prostate) to the internal vertebral venous plexuses. [1]

  9. Thoracic outlet syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoracic_outlet_syndrome

    Pain can also be in the side of the neck, the pectoral area below the clavicle, the armpit/axillary area, and the upper back (i.e., the trapezius and rhomboid area). Discoloration of the hands, one hand colder than the other hand, weakness of the hand and arm muscles, and tingling are commonly present.
