Post-surgery pubic symphysis is a rare condition that is difficult to diagnose. It must be mentioned in front of any pubic pain associated with a fever. The biological assessment is often disturbing but not specific. The MRI most often allows the diagnosis to be made and guides the sample to be taken which allows the antibiotic therapy to be adapted. The treatment is based on a long-term combination of antibiotics, the evolution is most often favourable. We report here the case of pubic symphysitis complicating a radical prostatectomy in our centre.
