• Hospitalization is recommended for all patients with spleen abscesses.
• Intravenous antibiotics, percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD), and surgery are the treatment modalities that can be used in the management of splenic abscesses.
• As a first-line treatment, PCD was performed under ultrasound-guidance; the splenic abscess was aspirated via 8–10 F catheter, cavity lavage (washing) with saline, catheter left in the cavity, daily lavage, and aspiration.
• The catheter was withdrawn after healing control with ultrasound.
• All patients should receive blood cultures and, if possible, abscess cultures, with extended-term antibiotic therapy initiated and reviewed according to the antibiogram results.
