Abstract:

Multiple liver abscess is a life threatening condition with high mortality. We present a case of a 59 yr old gentleman who developed multiple hepatic abscesses due to an appendicular mass. He was treated with parenteral antibiotics and ultrasound guided needle aspiration of the largest abscess was done. He recovered promptly with complete resolution of the liver abscesses. The main aim of this case report is to highlight the fact that multiple pyogenic liver abscesses can be managed with antibiotic treatment and needle aspiration.

Abstract:

Background: Liver abscesses, both amoebic and pyogenic, continue to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality in tropical countries. Pyogenic liver abscess is a serious, life-threatening condition with a high mortality rate that represents a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. In India, due to poor sanitary condition and a lower socioeconomic status, amoebiasis is endemic and amoebic liver abscess accounts for 3-9% of all cases of amoebiasis. Aim and objectives of current study was to study demographic profile in patients of amoebic and pyogenic liver abscesses. Methods: A detailed hi

Abstract:

Liver abscess is a rare but serious complication of Crohn’s disease. Patients with Crohn’s disease are at risk for pyogenic liver abscesses due to immunosuppressive therapy, fistulous disease, and intraabdominal abscesses. Inflammatory bowel disease patients are also known to have a greater prevalence of amebiasis compared to the rest of the population; however, a higher incidence of amebic liver abscess has not been reported. We describe a case of a liver abscess in a patient with Crohn’s disease that was initially presumed pyogenic but later determined to be amebic in origin. Epidemiology, c

Many treatment strategies have been proposed for pyogenic liver abscesses; however, the indications for liver resection for treatment have not been studied in a systematic manner.

We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of all patients who had a pyogenic liver abscess at Rhode Island Hospital between 1995 and 2002. Abscesses and treatment strategies were classified into three groups each. The abscess groups included Abscess Type I (small <3 c

Abstract:

Pyogenic hepatic abscesses represent a pathology whose prevalence has increased in recent years. In the past, surgical treatment of pyogenic liver abscesses was the gold standard. Nowadays, percutaneous drainage has become the first-line treatment. We report the case of a pyogenic liver abscess caused by acute appendicitis. Our management consisted of a combined treatment: percutaneous drainage of the abscess followed by appendectomy.

Abstract:

Tropical nations like India frequently have liver abscess. They are typically amoebic or pyogenic abscesses. It can sporadically be a sign of hepatic tuberculosis (TB). Hepatic tuberculosis should be suspected in cases where the patient doesn’t present with typical complaints of pyogenic/amoebic abscess without response to commonly used antibiotics. Pyogenic/amoebic liver abscesses show the rare complication of rupture into the pericardium, especially if the abscess is left sided. However, a tubercular pericardial effusion presenting with rupture into the pericardium has rarely been reported.

Abstract:

Liver Abscess is a focal supportive process, encapsulated collection filled with pus, infrequent, with moderate mortality of approx. 2-12% according to the literature. The pathogens responsible mainly belong to two groups, bacteria and parasites (Entamoeba Histolytica), and give rise to two types of liver abscesses, pyogenic and amoebic, respectively. The most common causes are abdominal infections, such as acute appendicitis, diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease, etc., or systemic infections such as bacterial endocarditis or manipulation of the biliary tract.

Little is known about preexisting lesions in livers of children with pyogenic liver abscess (PLA). Study of these lesions may elucidate possible predisposing factors for the disease. In Vitória, state of Espirito Santo, Brazil, PLA in children is frequently associated with helminthic infections and eosinophilia. We hypothesize that nematode infection with larvae migrating through the liver is a predisposing factor for PLA, because the infection induces immunomodulation and likely trapping of bacteria in liver granulomas.

Abstract:

Parasitic diseases which during their course in the host switch the immune system from a T helper 1 to a T helper 2 response may be detrimental to the host, contributing to granuloma formation, eosinophilia, hyper-IgE, and increased susceptibility to bacterial and fungal infections. Patients and animals with acute schistosomiasis and hyper-IgE in their serum develop pyogenic liver abscess in the presence of bacteremia caused by Staphylococcus aureus. The Salmonella-S. mansoni association has also been well documented. The association of tropical pyomyositis (pyogenic muscle abscess) and pyogen

Objective. To describe the clinical profile, microbiological aetiologies, and management outcomes in patients with liver abscess.Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted from May, 2011, to April, 2013, on 200 consecutive liver abscess patients at PGIMER and Dr. RML Hospital, New Delhi. History, examination, and laboratory investigations were recorded. Ultrasound guided aspiration was done and samples were investigated. Chi-square test and multivariate regression analysis were performed to test association.Results. The mean age of patients was 41.13 years. Majority of them were from lower

Abstract:

Liver abscess is a rare condition that can be divided into amoebic liver abscess and pyogenic liver abscess. The diagnosis is confirmed by performing an ultrasound or computerized tomography. The management of liver abscesses has seen a trend toward minimally invasive procedures like percutaneous drainage and intravenous antibiotics. Percutaneous drainage can be divided into percutaneous catheter drainage and percutaneous aspiration. Surgical drainage can be divided into open and laparoscopic drainage. In this chapter, we will look at the management of liver abscesses, especially the role of p

Abstract:

Liver abscesses are the most common types of visceral abscesses. Pyogenic liver abscesses, a particular type of liver abscesses, are uncommonly encountered. We present a rare case of pyogenic liver abscess caused by methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus in a young man. A 21-year- old man presented from prison to the hospital with fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain for five days. Labs were significant for leukocytosis with predominant neutrophilia and elevated liver enzymes. CT abdomen with contrast revealed an 8.4 cm multiloculated right hepatic mass extending to the

Abstract:

Liver abscess can be divided into pyogenic and amoebic liver abscess. The common organisms that cause pyogenic liver abscess include Escherichia Coli, with amoebic liver abscess being caused by Entamoeba histolytica. The diagnosis is made by ultrasound, computerized tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging of the liver. The treatment can be divided into medical therapy which involves percutaneous drainage and intravenous antibiotics, and surgical therapy which includes surgical drainage either by open or laparoscopic surgery. Surgical drainage is indicated for patients who have failed medica

Abstract:

Hepatic abscess is a prevalent disease in Northeastern India with a myriad clinical feature. The present study is aimed to understand the clinical profile, microbiological aetiologies, and management outcomes in patients with hepatic abscesses in Northeastern India, Silchar. In the surgery department of Silchar medical college and hospital, 20 cases of hepatic abscess were studied from January 2022 to October 2023. Records were kept for history, examination, and laboratory investigations. Ultrasound-guided aspiration of the abscess was done, and samples were subject to relevant investigation.
