[US-guided transrectal drainage of prostatic abscesses].
Prostatic abscess is rare and most commonly occurs as a complication of acute prostatitis. Because of the wider use of antibiotics, the clinical presentation is becoming less typical. Diagnosis is useful for diagnosis. Based on a review of 3 cases, the authors report their experience with US-guided transrectal drainage of prostatic abscesses and review other therapeutic options.
