    Author: Arendt T, Broschewitz U.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1989; 111(2):119-22. PubMed ID: 2922979.
    Abstract:
    In this case report an unusual chain of late complications with a fatal outcome following conization is presented. A scarred obliteration of the cervix resulted in the development of a hematohydrometra, which caused a calf vein thrombosis by compression of the vena iliaca externa with obstruction of venous outflow of crural vessels and a final massive pulmonary thrombo-embolism 11 years after the surgical procedure.
