Treatment of prostatic abscess concomitant with high-risk prostate cancer: A 2-steps approach.

Prostatic abscess (PA) prevalence has decreased in the era of antibiotics. This condition is associated with chronic conditions, including diabetes, immunodeficiency, liver disease, or even severe diseases such as prostate cancer. Concomitant prostatic abscess and prostate cancer are very challenging to treat because of the lack of specific guidelines, significant complications, and controversial treatment approaches. By reporting a case with prostate cancer in the setting of a prostatic abscess treated successfully by surgery, we propose a 2-steps approach including transurethral resection drainage followed by laparoscopic radical prostatectomy.
