Abstract:

Although rare in the western world; psoas abscess is a frequent finding in Indian sub continent associated with Pott’s spine. Untreated Pott’s spine may lead to various sequelae like destruction of vertebra, kyphosis, paraplageia etc which in modern world is amenable to anti-tubercular drugs and surgical management. We report a case of untreated Pott’s spine with bilateral calcified psoas abscess with kyphosis. To the best of our knowledge no such case of complete bilateral calcified psoas abscesses has been reported earlier. We want to discuss this case with relevant literature review and its influence on treatment plan. Keywords: aminoglycoside; antistaphylococcal; psoas.

Abstract:

19675 Background: Psoas abscess is regarded as a rare disease in medical literature, more so as primary presentation of malignancy or its recurrence. We describe a series of 10 cancer patients who presented with psoas abscess seen in a 18 month period at a large tertiary care cancer hospital in northern India. They were subsequently diagnosed as having malignancy or recurrence of a past malignancy. Methods: A retrospective study of cancer patients who presented with psoas abscess was undertaken. We reviewed clinical data from patients who presented in the period from April 2005 to December 2006 at the Patel Cancer & Superspeciality hospital, Jalandhar, India. Results: In this period 10 cases of cancer met the diagnosis of psoas abscess at presentation. The average age was 51 years (range 20 to 85) with a male female ratio of 4:1. In 7 patients psoas abscess was the presentation at initial diagnosis while in 3 patients it was the presentation of recurrence/relapse. None of the patients had any predisposing conditions like IV drug use, diabetes mellitus, hematoma or HIV positivity.. Majority (7/10) of primary tumors were genito- urinary cancers (Renal - 2, Ureter - 1, Cervix - 1, Prostate - 1, Dysgerminoma - 1, Penis-1) while 3 were of unknown origin. Squamous cell carcinoma was the commonest histology (4/10), followed by metastatic adenocarcinoma (3/10). Majority of the abscess were left sided (7/10) corresponding to the side of primary lesion. Under lying destruction of iliac bone with metastasis was found in only 2 patients. Most of the patients (9/10) responded poorly to treatment ie chemotherapy and radiotherapy, all of them dying of disease progression within a year. Conclusions: Psoas abscess can be a rare presentation of intra abdominal malignancy. Pre disposing factors may not necessarily be present. Genito-urinary malignancies should be kept in the differential diagnosis of unexplained psoas abscesses. Development of psoas abscess does not always signify metastatic disease but portends a poor prognosis to treatment. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract:

Psoas abscess is usually tuberculous or pyogenic in etiology. Pancreatitis of the tail of pancreas can cause psoas pseudocyst, especially on the left side. Infection of such pseudocysts can mimic pyogenic psoas abscess, and is more common in diabetics. We report a 25-year-old non-diabetic man with acute severe pancreatitis, who developed infected left psoas abscess on follow up. The psoas abscess was managed successfully by percutaneous drainage and antibiotics.

Abstract:

Background: Psoas abscess is a rare clinical disease of various origins. Most common causes include hematogenous spread of bacteria from a different primary source, spondylodiscitis or perforated intestinal organs. But rarely some abscesses are related to malignant metastatic disease. Case presentation: In this case report we present the case of a patient with known squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix treated with radio-chemotherapy three years prior. She now presented with a psoas abscess and subsequent complete inferior vena cava thrombosis, as well as duodenal and vertebral infiltration. The abscess was drained over a prolonged period of time and later was found to be a complication caused by metastases of the cervical carcinoma. Due to the massive extent of the metastases a Whipple procedure was performed to successfully control the local progress of the metastasis. Conclusion: As psoas abscess is an unspecific disease which presents with non-specific symptoms adequate therapy may be delayed due to lack of early diagnostic results. This case report highlights the difficulties of managing a malignant abscess and demonstrates some diagnostic pitfalls that might be encountered. It stresses the necessity of adequate diagnostics to initiate successful therapy. Reports on psoas abscesses that are related to cervix carcinoma are scarce, probably due to the rarity of this event, and are limited to very few case reports. We are the first to report a case in which an extensive and complex abdominal procedure was needed for local control to improve quality of life.

Abstract:

Considering the anatomy and associated pathology in a systematic fashion, the lump may represent: • Psoas sheath → psoas abscess or psoas bursa • Femoral nerve → neuroma • Femoral artery → femoral aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm • Femoral vein/long saphenous vein → saphena varix (dilated great saphenous vein due to incompetence at the saphenofemoral junction) • Lymph nodes → lymphadenopathy (infectious or malignant) • Hernial orifices → inguinal hernia, femoral hernia • Testicular apparatus → ectopic testis, undescended testis, hydrocele of cord • Skin/subcutis → lipoma, infected abscess (e.g. from intravenous (IV) drug use), sebaceous cyst. In common with lumps anywhere on the body, you will need to establish: • How long has the lump been there? Many of the diagnoses listed in Figure 24.1 will develop rather insidiously, but there are some that may have a rather shorter history. For example, a patient may develop a femoral artery pseudoaneurysm (a collection of blood outside the vessel lumen) following angiography, a direct inguinal hernia may be precipitated by a period of heavy lifting, or inguinal lymphadenopathy may follow a lower limb infection. Ectopic or undescended testes would be present from birth, but it is extremely unlikely that a man would reach adulthood in the Western world without having had this defect corrected by orchidopexy (orchid = testis, -pexy = fixation in correct position) or orchidectomy (orchid = testis, -ectomy = removal). • Is the lump always there? Does it reduce when the patient lies down? This question relates to hernias and saphena varix. Increases in intra-abdominal pressure, for example during coughing or straining at stool, may cause hernias to increase in size. A saphena varix may increase in size if the patient stands for long periods of time as retrograde flow through incompetent venous valves will allow blood to pool. A saphena varix will disappear completely when the patient lies down. • Has the lump got bigger, smaller, or stayed the same size? Almost all of the pathologies on our differential (with the possible exception of ectopic/undescended testes) may change in size over time.
