Prostate abscess (PA) is an uncommon clinical manifestation that typically presents in the fifth to sixth decade of age and sporadically affects neonates. These characteristics, coupled with the atypical presentation, represent a clinical dilemma and a challenging diagnosis. A detailed history depicting the clinical course and the presence of risk factors is imperative to alert the clinician of the possibility of a PA. In this case report, we present a surgically confirmed PA, a diagnosis that is rarely encountered within the paediatric age group.
前列腺脓肿（PA）是一种不常见的临床表现，通常出现在50至60岁之间，偶尔也会影响新生儿。这些特征，再加上不典型的表现，构成了临床难题和具有挑战性的诊断。详细描述临床病程和危险因素存在情况的病史对于提醒临床医生注意PA的可能性至关重要。在本病例报告中，我们呈现了一例经手术证实的PA，这是一种在儿科年龄组中很少见的诊断。
