Vivek Singh¹, Vaishali Tomar¹, Sunil Kumar¹, Rakesh K. Gupta¹

A 32 year-old woman presented with pelvic collection and fever following caesarean section. Diffusion weighted MRI showed the exact nature and cause of the collection, which on ultrasound appeared like tubo-ovarian mass. She was kept on conservative management and the collection was followed with repeated sonography until its complete resolution.
