Core Tip |
Actinomyces are considered natural commensals in the gastrointestinal tract and seldom involved in abdominal infection. We present herein, a rare pediatric case of primary hepatic actinomycosis that involved a pulmonary abscess and the anterior abdominal wall and skin. In our case, after diagnosis is made histologically, we chose cefoperazone sulbactam as the main antibiotic treatment and eventually lead to a good prognosis when combined with invasive intervention. This case highlights the ultimate importance of early suspect on special infection when normal antibiotic treatment failed and proper antibiotic treatment with surgery are essential in successful treatment for actinomycosis. |
