Culdocentesis is a medical procedure involving the extraction of fluid from the rectouterine pouch posterior to the vagina through a needle. It can be one diagnostic technique used in identifying pelvic inflammatory disease (in which case purulent fluid will be extracted) and ectopic pregnancy. In the procedure, the rectouterine pouch is often reached through the posterior fornix of the vagina. The process of creating the hole is called "colpotomy" if a scalpel incision is made to drain the fluid rather than using a needle. == See also == * amniocentesis * colposcopy * culdoscopy 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Culdocentesis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
