Changes in the pathogenesis and detection of intrahepatic abscess
Abstract
A comparison of two distinct 11 year time periods at our institution demonstrated a change not only in the cause of intrahepatic abscess but also in the procedures used to diagnose this condition. Significant improvement in the methods of detection of intrahepatic abscess permits earlier diagnosis and therapy and thus a significantly improved prognosis.
