ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Presentar dos casos clínicos de absceso prostático de difícil manejo y revisar el diagnóstico y tratamiento de esta entidad.MÉTODOS/RESULTADOS: Descripción de dos pacientes con absceso prostático. El primer caso es un varón diabético de 73 años a quien se le instaura un manejo conservador con drenaje percutáneo transrectal y quien tras una evolución tórpida fallece de una sepsis urológica. El segundo caso es un varón de 59 años con mala evolución clínica tras tratamiento antibiótico ambulatorio realizándose una resección transuretral de próstata con resultado satisfactorio.CONCLUSIÓN: El absceso prostático es una entidad rara. Afecta principalmente a personas debilitadas lo que le confiere un carácter grave. Las medidas encaminadas a su resolución deben ser rápidas y oportunas(AU)


OBJECTIVE: To report two cases of prostatic abscess of difficult management and review the literature on diagnosis and management of this entity.METHODS /RESULTS: We describe two patients with prostatic abscess. The first one, a 73-year-old diabetic male, was treated using a more passive approach with percutaneous transrectal drainage; after a slow response, the patient passed away due to sepsis. The second case was a 59-year-old male who experienced a negative clinical response to antibiotic treatment. While under antibiotic ambulatory care the patient was treated with a transurethral resection of the prostate, which yielded a successful outcome.CONCLUSION: Prostatic abscess is a rare entity that affects individuals experiencing weakness and can be a serious condition. Measures taken to arrive at a resolution must be rapid and appropriate(AU)
