[Ultrasonically guided transvaginal drainage of genital abscesses].
Abscesses in the true pelvis were previously treated by hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoophorectomy, colpotomy, transabdominal drainage and by antibiotics. In the present material, 16 abscesses in the true pelvis were treated with either establishing of transvaginal drainage or transvaginal puncture with a cannula, both methods ultrasonically guided with a vaginal transducer. Treatment proved effective in 93% of the cases and patients were only hospitalized for an average of 6.7 days after drainage.
