The median age and weight of the patients were 11.5 years (range, 3\u201318) and 46.8\u2009kg (range, 15.1\u2013118.0), respectively. The etiologies of the pelvic abscesses were perforated appendicitis (72.5%) and post-operative collections (27.5%). All patients presented with abdominal pain. Fever, emesis, and diarrhea were also common symptoms. The size of the pelvic abscesses ranged from 24.0 to 937.1\u2009mL (median, 132.7). Technical success was achieved in 68 of 69 TRD procedures (98.6%). Clinical improvement was observed in all patients with technically successful TRD. The TRD catheter dwell time ranged from 0 to 10 days (median, 4.0). Most patients who underwent TRD for perforated appendicitis subsequently underwent elective appendectomy after the resolution of the pelvic abscess (84.0%). The median time from TRD to elective appendectomy was 2.8 months (range, 0.3\u20136.1). There were no procedure-related complications.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003Image-guided TRD is a safe and effective procedure with high technical and clinical success rates for the treatment of pelvic abscesses in
