Core Tip	Hepatogastric fistula is a rare complication of the amebic liver abscess. High index of suspicion is required for its diagnosis. The presenting complaints may be brownish black vomitus or stool. It can be managed conservatively, endoscopically or surgically depending on case. Hence in cases of amebic liver abscess developing brownish black stools or vomiting we should always rule out hepatogastric fistula formation especially when it is associated with improvement of symptoms.
