Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The basic reason there is the infection at the operative site with secondary involvement in the form of Pleural effusion.
I recommend its evaluation with MRI of the abdomen and pelvis for further management guidelines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
