Abstract: 
Osteitis pubis is a condition that mainly affects young people.
It rarely occurs after urological surgery. It is a diagnostic and therapeutic emergency.
Diagnosis is based on clinical findings, which vary widely from simple pelvic tenderness to pain that limits walking. Imaging and additional bone biopsy must be performed to confirm the diagnosis.
Treatment is based on long-term antibiotic therapy, appropriate analgesics and muscle re-education with radiological drainage if necessary.
In this article, we report a case of osteitis pubis after suprapubic adenomectomy.
