Lumbar Pyogenic Spondylodiscitis and Bilateral Psoas Abscesses Extending to the Gluteal Muscles and Intrapelvic Area Treated with CT-guided Percutaneous Drainage - A Case Report -

Bilateral psoas abscesses extending to the gluteal muscle and intrapelvic area are uncommon. We present our experience with computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous catheter drainage for the treatment of multiple aggressive abscesses in a diabetic patient. The abscesses completely resolved after...

description Bilateral psoas abscesses extending to the gluteal muscle and intrapelvic area are uncommon. We present our experience with computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous catheter drainage for the treatment of multiple aggressive abscesses in a diabetic patient. The abscesses completely resolved after the procedures. Psoas abscess should be considered in the differential diagnosis of older diabetic patients with fever, flank or back pain, and flexion contracture of the hip joint. CT scanning is a useful method in diagnosing abscesses, and CT-guided percutaneous catheter drainage is an effective treatment method in selected patients.
