The psoas abscess is an entity, some times forgotten in our daily clinical practice. The gram-positive microorganisms are the most frequent, and S. aureus is the most important pathogen. We present a retrospective study of six cases. In our revision, five patients were women (83.3%), and one man (16.6%), with a median age of 65.83 years. The associated pathology were vertebral in four patients (66.6%), and urologic in two of them. The main symptoms were fever and lumbar pain. All the patients were diagnosed by CT. The correct identification of the microorganisms, and the prompt use of the antibiotherapy associated to surgery, helped to a total recuperation of this patients.
