The goal of our study is to compare the outcomes of the three modalities of prostate abscess (PA) drainage: Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided aspiration (TRA), transperineal aspiration (TPA), and transurethral de-roofing (TUD). METHODS: The records of 66 patients diagnosed with PAs were collected between 2014 and 2022 and divided into 3 groups according to the technique of abscess drainage that was used. (Group A) included 26 patients treated by TRA; (Group B) included 28 patients treated by TUD; and (Group C) included 12 patients treated by TPA. The three groups were compared based on demographic data, drainage success, recurrence, complications, and hospital stay. RESULTS: The most common clinical presentation was lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in 45 patients (68.18%), followed by fever in 40 patients (60.6%). The mean abscess size (cm) was 4.8±1, 5.7±1, and 5.4±1.3 cm in groups A, B, and C, respectively. Recurrence of the abscess occurred in three (11.5%), one (3.6%), and one (8.3%) patients in groups A, B, and C, respectively (p=0.496). The mean hospital stay was 4.8±1.7, 5±1.8, and 4.5±1.3 days in groups A, B, and C, respectively (p=0.763). When compared to the other two groups, the TUD group had a higher rate of complications (32.1%). CONCLUSIONS: A TRUS-guided transrectal and transperineal aspiration of PA were comparable to TUD technique regarding the recurrence rate and hospitalization period; however, the less frequent complications were in favour of the aspiration groups.
