Amebic liver abscess with hepatoduodenal fistula
The American Journal of Gastroenterology
|June 1, 1987
Abstract:
Common complications of amebic liver abscesses include rupture into the thorax, pericardium, and peritoneum. Rupture into the gastrointestinal tract is extremely rare. We report a case of an amebic liver abscess rupturing into the duodenum, forming a wide fistulous tract. To our knowledge, this is the first case with radiological confirmation.
