Synchronous pyogenic liver abscess and acute cholecystitis: how to recognize it and what to do (emergency cholecystostomy followed by delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy)
Surgical Endoscopy, 09/07/2011
Costi R et al. – A simple algorithm is presented for the selection of patients with acute cholecystitis (AC) to undergo a computer tomography (CT) scan to identify synchronous pyogenic liver abscess (PLA). Emergency CS followed by delayed LC is a viable, first–line treatment option for synchronous PLA and AC.
