| Popis: | We report the case of a man who consulted the emergency department of Hospital el Tunal in Bogotá, Colombia, because of six days of progressive abdominal pain in the upper right quadrant, associated with jaundice and fever; there was no relevant information in his medical history. On admission he was found in poor general condition and required management in the intensive care unit; diagnostic imaging studies documented a multiseptate collection in the left hepatic lobe, and a foreign body. He was submitted to laparotomy in which a fish bone was found as the cause of the abscess. After drainage of the collection and with antibiotic therapy evolution was favorable. |
