Popis:	SummaryIn an analysis of 100 cases of radical hysterectomy with extraperitoneal lymphadenectomy performed for carcinoma of the cervix, postoperative pelvic lymphocysts were detected in 11 patients (11 per cent). Eight of these (73 per cent) were asymptomatic. Although potentially serious complications are known to occur with lymphocysts, only minor ones were encountered. This paper outlines the clinical features and management in this group of patients. A system of management dependent on the size and symptoms of the cyst is proposed.
