Abstract
The aim of this study was to describe the anatomical relationships between the ovary and the obturator nerve in its intrapelvic portion. Seven embalmed cadavers were dissected; 20Â MRIs were then analyzed. The main distance between the lateral pole of the ovary and the obturator nerve was 29Â mm. The authors describe various etiologies responsible for obturator neuralgia. An underdiagnosed cause is gonadal hypertrophy.
