    Liver abscesses in Mexico are often caused by bacteria, posing diagnostic challenges. This study details six Salmonella liver abscess cases, highlighting their clinical features and treatment responses.

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Clinical Microbiology

    Context:

    • Liver abscesses are a significant health concern in Mexico, frequently caused by Entamoeba histolytica.
    • Bacterial etiologies of liver abscesses are less common but present diagnostic difficulties.
    • Delayed etiological diagnosis of bacterial liver abscesses can lead to prolonged treatment and increased mortality.

    Purpose:

    • To present the clinical and laboratory characteristics of liver abscesses caused by Salmonella species.
    • To describe the clinical evolution and treatment response in patients with Salmonella liver abscesses.

    Summary:

    • This study reports on six patients diagnosed with liver abscesses attributed to Salmonella.
    • The clinical presentation, laboratory findings, and diagnostic procedures for these cases are detailed.

  • The patients' responses to specific antimicrobial treatments and their overall clinical outcomes were monitored.

    • Impact:

    • This research contributes to understanding the clinical spectrum of Salmonella liver abscesses.
    • It underscores the importance of considering bacterial causes, including Salmonella, in liver abscess diagnosis.
    • Findings may inform diagnostic strategies and treatment protocols for liver abscesses in endemic regions.
