OBJECTIVE To assess the role of real-time transrectal ultrasound guidance in complicated gynecologic procedures. METHODS In 1998-99, real-time guidance with transrectal ultrasound was utilized in our department to assist the gynecologic surgeon in two procedures: completing the evacuation of the uterine cavity after identification of uterine wall perforation during first trimester termination of pregnancy, and drainage of infected vaginal vault hematoma following hysterectomy. RESULTS The technique was applied for 11 patients, six abortions and five infected hematomas. All the procedures were completed without any further complications and the patients were discharged on the following day. Follow-up was uneventful. CONCLUSIONS On-line intraoperative transrectal ultrasound can effectively provide real-time assistance to the gynecologic surgeon during complicated pelvic procedures.
