Amebic appendicitis associated with hepatic abscess.

A S Robinson, M Levinson.

We have described a case of primary amebic appendicitis with liver abscess, and we suggest that this diagnosis be considered in patients with appendicitis after returning from endemic areas. Careful histologic preparation will establish the diagnosis and dictate appropriate therapy.
