Mesotheliomas

_ are collections of fluid that occurs after surgery in the pelvis, retroperitoneum, or recess cavities

Lymphoceles

_ _ _: collections of blood between the bladder and lower uterine segment, resulting from a lower uterine transverse cesarean section and bleeding from the uterine vessels
