    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric surgery
    • Orthopedic imaging
    • Infectious disease

    Background:

    • Iliacus muscle abscesses can arise from sacroiliac joint infections.
    • Accurate preoperative diagnosis is crucial for effective surgical planning.

    Observation:

    • A 13-year-old male presented with symptoms suggestive of an iliacus abscess.
    • Technetium-99m bone imaging and computerized tomography were utilized for diagnosis.

    Findings:

    • Preoperative imaging confirmed an iliacus muscle abscess originating from the sacroiliac joint.
    • This diagnosis guided the surgical approach, enabling anterior retroperitoneal drainage.

    Implications:

    • Early and accurate diagnosis of iliacus abscesses is key for successful surgical outcomes.
    • The anterior retroperitoneal approach facilitates comprehensive drainage of iliacus abscesses.
