Intravascular haemolysis and septicaemia due to Clostridium perfringens liver abscess.

G Rajendran1, P Bothma, A Brodbeck.   

Abstract

Intravascular haemolysis is a rare but serious complication of Clostridium perfringens sepsis. The outcome is usually fatal unless treatment is started early. We describe a case of survival after haemolysis and multiple organ failure in the setting of a ruptured liver abscess and sepsis caused by C. perfringens in an immunocompetent 58-year-old male.
