Periprostatic abscess is a rare complication of hydrogel spacers in radiotherapy for prostate cancer. We present the case of a 61-year-old man who developed this condition. Abdominopelvis CT scan revealed a 54×35×75 mm collection in the location of the SpaceOAR, for which ultrasound-guided transperineal percutaneous drainage of the periprostatic abscess was performed. The patient remains well with serial CT scans showing near resolution of the collection.
前列腺周围脓肿是前列腺癌放射治疗中使用水凝胶间隔物的一种罕见并发症。我们报告了一例发生这种情况的61岁男性病例。腹盆腔CT扫描显示在SpaceOAR位置有一个54×35×75毫米的积液，为此对前列腺周围脓肿进行了超声引导下经会阴经皮引流。患者情况良好，系列CT扫描显示积液几乎消退。
