Low-Dose CT Fluoroscopy-Guided Drainage of Deep Pelvic Fluid Collections after Colorectal Cancer Surgery: Technical Success, Clinical Outcome and Safety in 40 Patients.

Given a minor proportion of patients requiring surgical revision due to anastomotic leakage, the CTD of deep pelvic fluid collections is safe and provides an excellent technical and clinical outcome. The reduction of radiation exposition over time can be achieved by both the ongoing development of CT technology and the increased level of interventional radiology (IR) expertise.
