Ultrasound-guided suction using negative pressure, curettage, and percutaneous drainage to treat rectus sheath hematoma
The removal of rectus sheath hematoma by suction using negative pressure can prevent patients from undergoing abdominal wall exploration, offering a less invasive alternative while potentially achieving comparable therapeutic effect to surgical hematoma removal in certain cases. This treatment method shows potential for clinical application, particularly in relatively young and healthy postpartum women, and is expected to be popularized and applied in clinical practice.
