Abstract. A 32 year-old woman presented with pelvic collection and feverfollowing caesarean section. Diffusion weighted MRI showed the exact nature andcause of the collection, which on ultrasound appeared like tubo-ovarian mass.She was kept on conservative management and the collection was followed withrepeated sonography until its complete resolution. Key words: Diffusion weighted imaging, periuterine collection, uterinecavity, caesarean section
