| Popis: |
We describe the case of a 67-year-old male with decompensated liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis B virus and alcohol consumption who presented with diarrhea and fever. Contrast CT of the abdomen revealed giant perirenal abscess. Klebsiella pneumoniae ssp pneumoniae was cultured from pus in perirenal abscess but not the blood. Haematogenous spread may have resulted in perirenal abscess in this case. The patient was successfully treated by percutaneous drainage, antimicrobial therapy and albumin infusion. With high mortality rates, early diagnosis and effectively treatment of perirenal abscess is required to improve the prognosis of patients. |
