A patient presented with tracking of pus from a chronic appendiceal abscess along the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh. In the absence of such a tunnel, which is only present in a small proportion of individuals, the infection would have resulted in a subinguinal psoas abscess. Although pus may conceivably extend in any direction, the reason for this unusual complication remains poorly understood.
一名患者出现慢性阑尾脓肿的脓液沿股外侧皮神经蔓延。若没有这样一条仅在少数个体中存在的通道,感染就会导致腹股沟下腰大肌脓肿。尽管脓液理论上可能向任何方向蔓延,但这种不寻常并发症的原因仍知之甚少。
