Subfascial dextran 70 collection after intraperitoneal instillation of Hyskon.
Our patient developed a subfascial collection of dextran 70 after intraabdominal instillation of Hyskon. Seroma and wound dehiscence should be ruled out. A nonleaking peritoneal closure may decrease the incidence of this complication. A nonleaking fascial closure will decrease the extension of the dextran 70 collection and prevent separation of the skin.
