Primer Psoas Absesi

Primer psoas abseleri nadir görülmekte olup genellikle stafilokok enfeksiyonları sonucu görülmektedir. Başlangıç semptomları psoas kası inflamasyonu ve kalça eklemi enfeksiyonlarıyla benzer olduğundan ilk tanının konulması güç olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 1988-1996 yılları arasında Cumhuriyet Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Üroloji Kliniğinde gördüğümüz 4 primer psoas abseli olgularımızı sunduk. Hastalığın gelişimi ve patofizyolojisi literatür eşliğinde tartışıldı.

Primary Psoas Abscess

Primary psoas abscess is relatively rare condition and is usually staphylococal in nature. The initial diagnosis may be difficult because of the similarity between the symptoms of psoas muscle inflamation and septic hip joint. We report 4 cases of primary psoas abscess between 1988-1996. The clinical presentation of the process and pathophsiology are discussed briefly.
