Abstract
Prostate is a bi-lobed, encapsulated and bilaterally
symmetrical ovoid gland, located caudal to
the bladder, encircling the proximal urethra.
Five intact male dogs with prostatic abscess were
selected to study the ef cacy of transabdominal
ultrasonographic evaluation and performed
needle aspiration of abscessed material from the
prostatic gland. Recurrence of prostatic abscess
was noticed in one dog (1/5) during the period of
study. Ultrasonographic examination of prostate
gland aided as diagnostic modality, helped to
perform therapeutic procedures and also used to
monitor the outcome of the treatment.
