Resumen

El absceso presacro es una complicación musculoesquelética infrecuente de la enfermedad de Crohn. El cuadro clínico en ocasiones es insidioso y el retraso en el diagnóstico puede conllevar una mayor morbilidad. La TC abdominopélvica ha demostrado ser muy útil en el diagnóstico. Normalmente requiere tratamiento quirúrgico.

Presentamos el caso de un varón de 22 años que acudió a nuestro hospital por dolor abdominal tipo cólico de 6 meses de evolución y episodios intermitentes de dolor articular. Presentaba, además, un dolor en glúteo derecho de dos semanas de evolución irradiado a cara posterior de muslo, de características mecánicas. Las pruebas complementarias fueron diagnósticas de enfermedad de Crohn, que había sido el diagnóstico de sospecha y evidenciaron un absceso presacro. El tratamiento fue quirúrgico.

Presacral abscess is a rare musculoskeletal complication of Crohn's disease. The clinical picture is sometimes insidious and a delay in diagnosis may increase morbidity. Abdominal-pelvic computerized axial tomography (CAT) has proven to be very useful in the diagnosis of this entity, which usually requires surgical treatment.

We present the case of a 22-year-old man who presented to hospital for colic-type abdominal pain of 6 months' evolution and intermittent episodes of joint pain. The patient also presented mechanical pain in the right gluteus muscle of two weeks' evolution irradiating to the posterior side of the muscle. Complementary investigations confirmed the suspected diagnosis of Crohn's disease and showed presacral abscess. Treatment was surgical.
