title: [Gas- and fluid-containing cavities in the small pelvis and their differential diagnosis].
abstract: Since untreated intra-abdominal abscesses are associated with a high mortality rate, early diagnosis is important. In abscesses involving gas formation, plain radiographs of the abdomen in various projections are sufficient for diagnosis. In this article, differential diagnosis of cavities containing gas and fluids is discussed.
