Abstract
Urachal abscess, a rare condition from fetal allantoic canal remnants, presents diagnostic challenges. We report a case in a 40-year-old man, emphasizing clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic nuances. Imaging aids diagnosis, with prompt surgical intervention following antibiotic therapy. Early recognition is vital to prevent complications. Multidisciplinary management improves outcomes.
