Abstract Background Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Epidemiological data regarding risk factors and outcome determinants are often ascertained from referral population bases. We utilized a population-based study design to better understand PLA. Methods Calgary Health Zone (CHZ) residents ≥18 years of age (population ~1.3 million) who were hospitalized with PLA in 2017 were included. Charts were manually reviewed to determine demographics and clinical outcomes. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to assess for factors associated with 30-day mortality using STATA 15.1 (College Stn., TX). Results Forty-four patients with PLA were identified (39% female, median age 61 [IQR 56–68] years) corresponding to an incidence rate of 3.7 cases per 100,000 population. Prevalent co-morbidities with PLA included; hemodialysis dependence (4.5%), cancer (25%), diabetes (23%), and cirrhosis (6.8%), each of which was significantly more common (P < 0.05) than in the general population; 85.3X, 11.2X, 3.6X, 29.9X, respectively. Rates of other comorbidities including ischemic heart disease, COPD, and rheumatoid arthritis did not differ from general populations (P > 0.05). The etiology of PLA was established in 72% of cases, of which biliary was most common (48%). Most (91%) cases had at least one organism identified via blood or liver aspirate culture. The most common organisms were Streptococcus anginosus group (12), Klebsiella pneumoniae (11), Klebsiella oxytoca (6), Escherichia coli (4), and obligate anaerobes (3). Blood cultures were positive in 25/44 (56%) cases. Thirty-day mortality from admission was 11% and had multiple risk factors (Table-1). Conclusion PLA in the CHZ is common and associated with high mortality. Understanding factors influencing PLA occurrence and outcome can assist in correctly identifying and optimally treating patients. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

The Impact

Pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a potentially fatal disease that can stimulate prominent systemic inflammation. Osteoporotic hip fracture is a major complication of systemic inflammation. This study tried to determine the epidemiology of hip fractures among PLA patients. All subjects admitted due to PLA during 1999∼2010 were assessed, excluding the subjects with a history of high energy trauma, malignancy, and previous hip fracture. We matched the control subjects to PLA patients according to age, gender, and the coding of osteoporosis by 1 : 4 ratio. The PLA patients had a 1.17-fold risk of hip fracture than the controls (aHR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.07–1.29) after adjusting for gender, age, and comorbidities. Considering death as the competing event of suicide, the PLA patients had 1.10-fold suicide risk (aHR = 1.10, 95% CI: 1.00–1.21) than the control subjects under the competing risks regression model. The cumulative incidence of hip fracture was higher in the PLA cohort (log-rank test, p<0.001). When compared to the controls, the fracture risk was 18.4-fold (aHR = 18.4, 95% CI = 13.0–26.1) for the PLA patients admitted 2-3 times per year and 46.0-fold (aHR = 46.0, 95% CI = 31.2–67.8) for the PLA patients admitted ≧4 times per year. The impact of PLA is more prominent among the subjects aged <45 years (aHR = 2.81, 95% CI = 1.42–5.56). Preventive measures for hip fracture might be warranted for PLA patients.
