خراج البروستاتا >1 سم في الموجات فوق الصوتية عبر المستقيم: الخطوة التالية عندما لم يحقق الشفط الحل الكامل

When managing prostatic abscess, size does matter; in one study, conservative treatment was successful if the abscess cavities were <1cm in diameter, while larger abscesses were better treated by single aspiration or continuous drainage.

Very rarely open surgical drainage might be required in patients with extraprostatic involvement.

If the abscess recurs or cannot be completely evacuated, transurethral deroofing is a more appropriate approach, leading to better drainage of the abscess cavity with early recovery of the patient.

However, transurethral deroofing of PAs is still employed for persistent abscesses that recur despite minimally-invasive treatment.
