    Author: Okan F, Ince Z, Coban A, Can G.
    Journal: Turk J Pediatr; 2009; 51(4):389-91. PubMed ID: 19950852.
    Abstract:
    We report a newborn infant with psoas abscess caused by methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. He was referred to our hospital with a history of hospital admission for hip septic arthritis without clinical improvement, and presented limited left hip motion, swelling on the groin and pain. A magnetic resonance imaging study revealed an abscess of the left psoas muscle. Surgical drainage and antibiotic treatment resulted in full recovery.
