  • Title: [Diagnostic and therapeutic problems in amebic liver abscess].
    Author: Bittscheidt H, Bohnsack R, Kozuschek W, Blümm RG, Breining H, Drüner HU.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1983 Oct; 54(10):673-6. PubMed ID: 6678724.
    Abstract:
    Abscesses of the liver represent the most common complications of amebiasis. In general they are treated non-surgically by the aid of Metronidazol. Complications, however, such as perforations, development of fistulas or septicemia may occur and necessitate surgical intervention. The role of CT in diagnostic problems and therapeutic management is discussed in three different cases with respect to other diagnostic techniques.
