Fig. 3From: Multidetector CT of expected findings and complications after hysterectomyTwo cases of vaginal vault haematoma. A) Typical example of midline haematoma after VH for GP in a 40-year-old female: precontrast sagittal CT image showing 5-cm hyperattenuating (45–50 Hounsfield units, HU) mass-like structure (*) above the vaginal dome, causing compression of the bladder. B–D) in a 35-year-old female, following VH for menorrhagia, a smaller (3 × 2 cm) paramedian vaginal vault haematoma (*) shows mild precontrast (B) hyperattenuation (40 HU), peripheral enhancement after iv contrast (C, D), abutting the upper right aspect of the vaginal dome (arrows). Both occurrences were successfully managed conservatively. Note: lymphocele (+). (Partially reproduced from open access ref. no [58])Back to article page
