Culdocentesis - Riesgos

Cuáles son los riesgos:

Hay un ligero riesgo de punzar cualquier neoplasia, quiste o embarazo ectópico existente. La aguja no debe ser insertada muy profundamente ni con tanta fuerza que penetre la pared uterina.

Consideraciones especiales:

Es probable que la persona necesite que alguien la lleve a la casa si se le ha suministrado un sedante para el procedimiento.
