Clinical and ultrasonic diagnosis of hematometra following curettage

By hands of a case report we describe our diagnostic management in a patient suffering from hematometra 3 months after legal abortion. Sonography plays an important role in such cases to detect and explain the symptoms "metrorrhagy and uterine cramps monthly connected with small inflammatory signs". For curing we did a probing of the uterine cavity to eliminate the residual blood coagulas. 3 months after curing the hematometra the patient was clinically and sonographically without bodily ailments. Hypotheses about etiology and treatment of this rare condition are reviewed.
