Gynecologic rarities: a case of periclitoral abscess and review of the literature
Am J Obstet Gynecol.
2012 Nov.
Abstract
Periclitoral abscess is a rare entity, with publications limited to case reports. We present here a case of periclitoral abscess in a 17 year old patient, which was treated with incision and drainage. We also review all the similar cases that have been reported in the English literature until now.
