Objective: Toimprove the diagnosis and treatment of prostate abscess by summing up experience of 6 cases of prostatic abscess. Methods: From May 2014 to October 2019, 6 cases of prostatic abscess were diagnosed by means of clinical manifestations combined with digital rectal examination (DRE), ultrasound and computed tomography (CT). Five cases were performed transurethral incision and drainage for prostatic abscess, and 1 case underwent ultrasound-guided perineal drainage. Results: The symptoms of the 6 patients disappeared after drainage and recovered well without recurrence. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations combined with DRE, ultrasonography and CT are beneficial to the diagnosis of prostatic abscess. Both transurethral incision and drainage and ultrasound-guided perineal drainage are effective way to treat prostate abscess.
