[Echography in the diagnosis of postoperative complication in gynecology].
The authors report their experience regarding the use of ultrasonic instruments to control the postoperative iter of gynecological, oncological or urological surgery. These types of surgery may be complicated by urethral lesions, retroperitoneal or subfascial sero-hematic stasis, lymphocele, urethrohydronephrosis or vescical dysfunctions with urinary stasis which, if identified at an early stage, can be resolved by surgery. Out of 88 cases of gynecological surgery with a high risk of complications which were followed using ultrasound during the postoperative period, complications occurred in 11 cases (12.5%): their early identification also enabled adequate treatment to be performed using an echo-guided aspirated needle technique or using the application of drainage catheters.
