Abstract
A psoas abscess in pregnancy is a relatively uncommon condition with non specific signs and symptoms. It may lead to serious complications if not diagnosed and treated. A clinical history and examination are used to make a diagnosis, which is then confirmed by microbiology and radiological findings. We present a case of a primary psoas muscle abscess in pregnancy diagnosed and managed by lumbotomy and drainage.
