Overview

Subphrenic abscess is a localized infection between the colon and the diaphragm on the left side of the abdomen and the liver and the diaphragm on the right side of the abdomen.

They may occur following rupture of any organ in the abdomen or following any diagnostic (e.g laparoscopy) surgical procedures in the abdomen.
