摘要
A 35-year-old woman was transferred to this hospital because of abdominal pain, fever, and hypotension 3 days after an elective cesarean section. On examination, she appeared acutely ill. The temperature was 39.2°C, the blood pressure 70/52 mm Hg, and the pulse 149 beats per minute. The abdomen was distended and very tender, with rebound. There was erythema and edema in the region of the surgical incision, extending to the left flank, with no drainage. A diagnostic procedure was performed.
