  • Title: Multiple hepatic abscesses caused by Streptococcus milleri in association with an intrauterine device.
    Author: Gelfand MS, Hodgkiss T, Simmons BP.
    Journal: Rev Infect Dis; 1989; 11(6):983-7. PubMed ID: 2602778.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of Streptococcus milleri bacteremia and multiple hepatic abscesses secondary to an intrauterine device and a tuboovarian abscess. Hepatic abscess as a complication of an intrauterine device has previously been reported only once, with Actinomyces israelii as the causative agent. Our patient's hepatic abscesses were cured with medical therapy.
