dc.description.abstractPyomyositis is a rare disease, encountered mainly in tropical climates. The diagnosis of this entity is difficult, if not misdiagnosed, because of its rarity and its subacute presentation. We report of a 42-year-old man, in whom pyomyositis developed while he was receiving the standard chemotherapy for T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Three months following splenectomy, multiple abscesses occurred in the muscles of both thighs while the patient was receiving the third course of the CHOP regimen. A purulent exudate was aspirated from the abscesses under computed tomographic guidance. Coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus was cultured in the aspirate. Pyomyositis was completely resolved following the surgical drainage and the antistaphylococcal antibiotic treatment. This patient has shown that immunosuppression due to splenectomy, NHL, and chemotherapy, especially when using steroids, could be risk factors for pyomyositis in nontropical or semitropical countries.en_US
