More Details: We report the case of a 22-day-old boy baby, and he was brought to us with fever and vague rapidly growing mass in the lower abdomen eventually diagnosed as iliopsoas abscess (IPA). Ultrasonography (USG) and computed tomography were of help in making diagnosis. USG-guided aspiration failed; hence, the baby was treated by extraperitoneal drainage. IPA in neonates is uncommon. This rare disease presentation with confined review of literature is set out in this case report.
