title: [Pelviperitonitis and intestinal occlusion: two unusual cold-knife conisation complications].
abstract: Complications associated with cold-knife conization are mainly hemorrhage, genital and urinary infections. We presented two cases of accidental posterior colpotomy with Douglas pouch wound initially unnoticed at the time of the cold-knife conization, and secondary complicated by a pelviperitonitis for the first case and by an incarceration of the bowel loop in the vaginal wound for the second case.
