Transurethral drainage for prostatic abscess in a patient with metastatic testicular cancer undergoing systemic chemotherapy.
Transurethral drainage for prostatic abscess in a patient with metastatic testicular cancer undergoing systemic chemotherapy. Research Abstract Details
We report a case of prostatic abscess in a 22-year-old man with metastatic testicular cancer being treated by BEP (bleomycin, etoposide and cisplatin) chemotherapy. This abscess was successfully treated by surgical drainage with transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) under the guidance of transrectal ultrasound, allowing the patient to continue be receiving BEP without significant interruption. Drainage TURP is suggested to be a useful strategy for prostate abscess, when prompt control of symptoms caused by prostatic abscess is required.
