Ventriculoperitoneal Shunting

Abstract Liver abscess is a previously unreported complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunting. We present such a case, which was diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) and managed by CT-guided percutaneous catheter drainage of the liver abscess, appropriate antibiotics, and shunt externalization.

High Output

The case of a large amebic liver abscess with an atypical presentation is reported. High output bile drainage persisted after ultrasound guided percutaneous catheter drainage because of a preexisting communication of the abscess with the right hepatic ductal system. The abscess was managed successfully by surgical evacuation and internal drainage into a defunctioned jejunal loop.
