Abstract

Deep pelvic abscesses in many instances are very challenging to treat surgically. Presence of many structures within the tight pelvic cavity make surgical intervention very difficult and risky. Posterior transgluteal CT fluoroscopy guided percutaneous drainage of these abscesses is much safer and amendable for treatment. Although technically straightforward, good pelvic cavity anatomical knowledge and axial CT image interpretation skill is detrimental to achieve satisfactory results. We review five (5) cases of posterior transgluteal CT fluoroscopy guided percutaneous drainage of deep pelvic abscess performed in our center within these past 2 years with good outcome.
