Psoas abscess in hemodialysis patients
International Urology and Nephrology, 10/06/09
Sato M et al. – Psoas abscess could be a complication of discitis, blood access infection and colitis in hemodialysis patients. The frequency of polycystic kidney disease as the primary cause of ESKD was significantly higher in the hemodialysis patients with psoas abscess than in prevalent Japanese hemodialysis patients. We should consider psoas abscess as a possibility in hemodialysis patients with infection of unknown cause, especially in patients with polycystic kidney disease.
