“…Another possible risk factor for the development of liver abscess after LSG is ascending migration of bacteria from the portal venous system due to pylephlebitis of the porto-mesenteric veins secondary to leak-related collection. 10 However, pylephlebitis was not detected in CT images of the present case.…”

An infected material in the gastrosplenic area after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) due to hematoma or staple line leak has the potential to spread of the bacterial content to the liver which can result in pyogenic liver abscess. Presently described is a thirty-seven-year-old female patient with unilocular pyogenic liver abscess two weeks after LSG. The abscess resolved by Ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage plus intravenous antibiotic treatment. Review of the literature regarding 3 other cases with liver abscess after LSG is also presented.

Newly Diagnosed Idiopathic Liver Abscess: Colonoscopy Required!

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Liver abscess is the most common type of visceral abscess reported in the United States. Biliary tract disease is the most common cause of the development of liver abscess. In the last decade, many cases of liver abscesses silently manifesting as colon cancer have been reported in East Asian countries. We herein describe a case of an immunocompetent man who immigrated from East Africa to Unites States and presented with a suspicion of colon mass with metastasis to the liver, and who was later diagnosed to have a colonic malignancy with a concomitant liver abscess. Our aim was to make clinicians aware of the importance of ruling out occult colonic malignancy in patients with idiopathic liver abscess.
