| Core Tip |
Pyogenic and amoebic liver abscess represent a significant challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of focal bacterial and parasitic infectious hepatic disease, even in European countries. Ultrasound (US) is the first and main imaging tool involved in the diagnosis of these two rare and neglected diseases, respectively. US and US-guided percutaneous drainage of hepatic abscesses, either pyogenic or amoebic, play an essential role in their management. In hydatid liver cyst percutaneous puncture, injection of scolicidal agent with or without reaspiration has been shown to have higher efficacy, fewer complications and hospital stay compared to surgery. |
