title: [Abscess of the seminal vesicle. Clinico-therapeutic review apropos of a case].
abstract: Reporting the case of a patient diagnosed with an abscess of the seminal vesicle, treated successfully through parasacral transgluteal percutaneous aspiration lead by computerized axial tomography (CAT). This represents the first case in the literature of percutaneous access to the seminal vesicles through this route. CAT is an effective diagnostic test which makes non-surgical treatment for this type of abscess simpler. A review is made of the literature with regard to the etiology, diagnosis and therapy of seminal vesicle abscesses.
