title: Buttock cellulitis as a presentation of psoas abscess: a clinical reminder.
abstract: Cellulitis is a common condition that is frequently managed by the general physicians on an acute medical take. This case report describes buttock cellulitis as a presentation of an iliopsoas abscess and illustrates the importance of considering a deep abscess when there are atypical features, when the cellulitis is in an unusual location or when the patient fails to improve with standard anti-microbial therapy.
