Abstract:
Liver abscess is a common disease, however, it is a rare cause of venous thrombosis. The incidence of amoebic and pyogenic liver abscess in developing countries is high, however, the occurrence of inferior vena cava thrombosis secondary to liver abscess is a very rare and life-threatening complication. Computed tomography (CT) scan is an ideal investigation tool for diagnosing the various complications associated with liver abscess. Here we describe 3 cases of liver abscess in patients who developed a rare vascular complication of inferior vena cava. Liver abscesses should be considered as a rare cause of IVC thrombosis in the correct clinical context. All the patients were managed with ultrasound-guided pigtail insertion and antimicrobial agents.
摘要:
肝脓肿是一种常见病,然而,这是静脉血栓形成的罕见原因。在发展中国家,阿米巴和化脓性肝脓肿的发病率很高,然而,继发于肝脓肿的下腔静脉血栓形成是一种非常罕见且危及生命的并发症。计算机断层扫描(CT)扫描是诊断与肝脓肿相关的各种并发症的理想研究工具。在这里,我们描述了3例发生下腔静脉罕见血管并发症的患者的肝脓肿。在正确的临床背景下,肝脓肿应被视为IVC血栓形成的罕见原因。所有患者均接受超声引导下的猪尾插入和抗菌药物治疗。
