Event or Problem Description

A patient in a study underwent a da vinci-assisted benign hysterectomy procedure.On the first postoperative day, an increased volume of bloody fluid was noted at the drainage.An ultrasound evaluation revealed a hematoma in the douglas pouch measuring 78 x 38 x 82 mm.The patient reported increasing dizziness, and laboratory tests showed a declining hemoglobin level, leading to the decision to initiate treatment.This revealed a hemoperitoneum with a volume of approximately 600 ml.A small source of bleeding on the greater omentum was coagulated, and the area was thoroughly irrigated; there was no blood transfusion.The event led to a prolonged hospitalization; discharged occurred 4 days after surgery.The study investigator reported the event as mild severity, not a serious adverse event, a clavien-dindo grade iiib, possibly related to the study procedure and possibly related to the patient's underlying disease status.
