Pneumococcal Psoas Abscess

Primary extrapulmonary pneumococcal disease has become a rarity in modern times. We describe a 40-year-old patient who developed an abscess of the psoas muscle as the only evidence of pneumococcal disease. A predisposing local condition was prior trauma of the psoas muscle, documented by the existence of myositis ossificans circumscripta.

Psoas abscess in children

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1985
In children, psoas abscess does not head the list in the differential diagnosis of the child who presents with a limp or lower abdominal pain. Therefore, the road to this diagnosis can be long and complicated leading to numerous studies and specialty consultations. Over a 7-year period, seven psoas abscesses have been drained surgically.
