    Author: Freitag J, Freitag G, Heinrich P, Wagemann W.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1989; 114(7):462-6. PubMed ID: 2741573.
    Abstract:
    Percutaneous catheterised drainage of abscesses and pseudocysts as well as of circumscribed suppurations in soft-part tissue is considered an established therapeutic approach. Therapeutic puncture or drainage was successfully performed in 19 cases, following CT-targeted fine-needle puncture and subsequent cytological and bacteriological diagnosis. Inflammatory alterations were tackled by antibiotic therapy according to an antibiogram. Complications did not occur.
