Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1985
We have drained 50 abscesses in 40 patients. The success rate was 100% for entering the abscess cavities and 98% for establishing catheter drainage. The success rate for treating the abscess (i.e., no surgery required) was 88%. We drained all abscesses for which a safe access route was available, regardless of the abscess's characteristics.

Hepatic hematoma: percutaneous drainage
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1980Traumatic subcapsular hepatic hematomas represent a special problem in surgical management. Richie and Fonkalsrud [1 ] suggest a nonoperative approach; however, Trunkey et al. [2] advise caution in nonoperative management because associated extensive parenchymal damage might require debridement.

Percutaneous Abscess Drainage: Update
World Journal of Surgery, 2001During the approximately 20 years that percutaneous abscess drainage (PAD) has been an extant procedure and as the millennium begins, PAD has become, by consensus, the treatment of choice for abscesses. Indications for PAD continue to expand, and currently almost all abscesses are considered amenable.

Percutaneous Drainage of Thoracic Collections
Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1998Various infected and noninfected thoracic fluid collections may be diagnosed and treated by interventional radiologic techniques. The core procedure of ultrasound-guided thoracentesis has been expanded to allow catheter drainage of empyema, bronchopleural fistula, abscesses in the lung, mediastinum, pericardium, and infected tumors.

Percutaneous Drainage of Prostatic Abscesses
Journal of Urology, 1986Percutaneous catheter drainage of intra-abdominal abscesses currently is a well established technique. We report on 2 anuric patients on maintenance hemodialysis who presented with a prostatic abscess. We elected to use a transperineal, percutaneous drainage technique.

Percutaneous drainage of renal abscesses
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1984Percutaneous drainage combined with cross-sectional imaging is reported in five patients with intrarenal abscesses. No recurrences and no complications occurred. This nonsurgical approach avoids the risks inherent in surgical therapy. Combined with appropriate antibiotic coverage, percutaneous drainage is an effective nonsurgical therapy for unilocular

The Utility of a Drainage Needle for Percutaneous Abscess Drainage
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2005In this article, I describe a percutaneous drainage needle that consists of six side holes in its cannula. The needle is specially designed for effective evacuation of complex abscess collections consisting of internal solid components, including floating debris, that tend to block the needle aperture during aspiration.
