    Abstract:
    A previously healthy 27-year-old man developed Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia complicated by a solitary liver abscess. This is an unusual course of necrobacillosis, in addition to Fusobacterium necrophorum being a rare cause of anaerobic liver abscesses. The patient was treated with percutaneous drainage and a prolonged course of ampicillin and metronidazole therapy. He had a successful recovery.
