Management of hematoma after gynecologic and obstetric surgery; risk factors and treatment modalities.

摘要

We have found that preoperatively taking certain drugs such as aspirin and a variety of non-prescription blood thinners, intraoperative administration of heparin, systemic anticoagulation defects, hereditary bleeding disorders (Von Willebrand disease, hemophilia), uncontrolled hypertension (preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome, chronic renal failure), coughing and sneezing, inadequate hemostasis during operation, and poor aftercare by the patient are the risk factors for postoperative hematoma. Development and treatment can employ different management.1 Patients that developed a hematoma after surgery were reviewed between 2006 and 2009 in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Ege University to determine the symptoms, risk factors, and treatment modalities in the postoperative period.
