    Abstract:
    We present our experience of ultrasound-guided percutaneous drainage with a catheter in 5 splenic abscesses. All the cases were resolved and there was only one relevant complication. The advantages of this treatment compared with surgery and isolated medical treatment are discussed and this technique is proposed as the treatment of choice.
