Figure 15c. Uterine abscess in a 51-year-old woman with septicemia. The patient had undergone UAE 3 months earlier. (a) Axial transabdominal US image of the uterus shows a large uterine abscess (cursors) with diffuse hyperechoic foci (arrow), findings that are consistent with gas. (b, c) CT scans obtained at different levels through the uterus help confirm a large uterine abscess with an air-fluid level (arrow in b). The patient subsequently underwent hysterectomy.
