Abstract:
:The authors review their experience with transrectal drainage of pelvic abscesses in seven children and adolescents (6-16 years old). Initial access was guided by transrectal ultrasound with an endovaginal transducer followed by fluoroscopy for placement of self-retaining catheters (8.5-10 F) using the Seldinger technique. All abscesses were successfully drained without complications. A transrectal catheter was well tolerated by most patients without spontaneous dislodgment. Catheters were removed after an average of 4 days (range 3-7 days). Transrectal drainage of pelvic abscess with transrectal sonographic and fluoroscopic guidance seems to be a safe and effective procedure in children.

杂志文章abstract:BACKGROUND:Prader orchidometry has been the standard method for evaluating testicular size. As this technique is subjective and tends to overestimate the testicular volume, ultrasound (US) has been proposed as more reliable.
