A 33-year-old woman 6 days after repeat C-section in 2nd pregnancy. CT is performed due to fever, pain, left costovertebral angle tenderness, and increasing serum level of C-reactive protein (485 mg/l) and procalcitonin (6.7 ng/ml), with a suspicion of renal colic or endometritis. CT revealed gas within the C-section incision in the uterine wall (long arrow) and in the uterine cavity (short arrow), as well as an abscess in front of/under the uterus (thick arrow), shifting the bladder to the left. Two hours later, the patient was operated on, and the abscess was evacuated
