CT-GUIDED TRANSRECTAL DRAINAGE OF DEEP PELVIC COLLECTION
Abstract
Postoperative deep pelvic collection was treated by transrectal catheter drainage under CT guidance in a 48 year old female patient. The immediate result was dra- matic. No procedure-related complications were seen. Long-term follow up was done by ultrasonography and revealed no residual or recurrent collection.
