Actinomyces is a rare cause of prostatic abscess. Most reported cases of abdominal and pelvic actinomycosis are a consequence of invasive procedures or abdominal infections. In this report, we present a previously healthy 53-year-old man with inguinal pain, fever and dysuria who was found to have a prostate abscess, secondary to Actinomyces turicensis and Peptostreptococcus, which was removed via transurethral resection of the prostate. This case was complicated by Peptostreptococcus bacteremia and a facial abscess. The patient was treated with antibiotics and ultimately made a full recovery.
放线菌是前列腺脓肿的罕见病因。大多数报道的腹部和盆腔放线菌病病例是侵入性操作或腹部感染的结果。在本报告中，我们介绍了一名此前健康的53岁男性，他因腹股沟疼痛、发热和排尿困难就诊，被发现患有前列腺脓肿，继发于土生放线菌和消化链球菌，通过经尿道前列腺切除术将脓肿切除。该病例并发消化链球菌菌血症和面部脓肿。患者接受了抗生素治疗，最终完全康复。
