Liver abscess due to Listeria monocytogenes: case report and review
T I Braun et al. Clin Infect Dis. 1993 Aug.
Abstract
Involvement of the liver in cases of Listeria monocytogenes infection is uncommon but has been manifested as solitary liver abscess, multiple liver abscesses, and hepatitis. We describe a 73-year-old diabetic woman who presented with a solitary liver abscess and prolonged fever, and we review the world literature on hepatic manifestations of L. monocytogenes infection. Patients presenting with solitary liver abscesses uniformly recovered with antimicrobial therapy and abscess drainage, whereas almost all patients presenting with multiple liver abscesses died.
