Overview

Diagnostic Criteria

Diagnostic criteria for pyogenic liver abscess are:

  • Liver aspirate or surgical tissue culture positive from a discrete liver abscess
  • Diagnostic imaging consistent with liver abscess with a concurrent positive blood culture
  • Diagnostic imaging consistent with liver abscess and a defined radiologic and clinical response to antimicrobial management even if cultures were negative or not performed.

Laboratory findings

  • Laboratory tests consistent with diagnosis of amoebic liver abscess include:
