Abstract61 patients with abdominal abscesses and fluid collections as a postoperative complication underwent percutaneous drainage. 60 abscesses, 11 haematomas, 3 steril seromas and 3 bile collections were drained. The fluid collections were associated with biliary or enteric fistulae in 16 cases. The percutaneous drainage was successful in 69%, additional surgery was required in 15%. The overall mortality rate was 13%. Reasons for drainage failure were infected clots, phlegmonic abscesses and pancreas involvement of the abscesses.
