Abstract

Seminal vesicle abscess, a rare urologic entity, is usually diagnosed with computerized tomography (CT) scan. We report a case of seminal vesicle abscess that required a transrectal ultrasonography to confirm the diagnosis. An analysis of 20 cases of seminal vesicle abscess reported in the literature is also reviewed.
