  • Title: Prostatic abscess: diagnosis and treatment.
    Author: Granados EA, Riley G, Salvador J, Vincente J.
    Journal: J Urol; 1992 Jul; 148(1):80-2. PubMed ID: 1613887.
    Abstract:
    We present a series of 25 men with prostatic abscesses studied during an 11-year interval in whom prostatic fluctuation upon digital rectal examination was the most characteristic sign. Transrectal ultrasound was the most reliable method for diagnosis and transurethral drainage under antibiotic coverage was the ideal treatment for this disease.
