Abstract
The objective of this paper is to describe the clinical and diagnostic characteristics of patients with pyogenic hepatic abscesses evaluated in the emergency room, and to know whether it is feasible to make an early diagnosis based on any of these characteristics. The setting was an urban, tertiary-care teaching hospital. This was a retrospective study of 63 adult patients admitted to our institution because of pyogenic liver abscesses from January 1991 to December 1998.Entities:
