A case of hepatocolic fistula after percutaneous drainage for a gas-containing pyogenic liver abscess.
1994
We describe a rare of gas-containing pyogenic liver abscess which penetrated the adjacent colon, forming a hepatocolic fistula, after percutaneous transhepatic abscess drainage (PTAD) had been performed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of hepatocolic fistula associated with a gasforming liver abscess in a diabetic patient, with radiological and surgical confirmation of the fistula.
