چکیده
|
Percutaneous image‑guided drainage is the standard ofcare in the treatment of liver abscess. however this may notsuffice in multi‑loculated abscesses and those associatedwith concomitant biliary pathology. we report the case of a34 year old male who presented to our hospital with a hugehepatic abscess that could not be aspirated percutaneously.subsequently he had a laparoscopic guided aspiration ofthe abscess, with the aid of veress needle. three weekspost operatively, no residual abscess cavity was noticeable.we believe that minimal access surgery techniques shouldalways be considered in the management of liver abscess,and that the veress needle can be an additional aspirationdevice, in our environment.
