pubmed:abstractText |
Amoebic liver abscess (ALA) is the most common extraintestinal complication of colonic amebiasis. In recent decades its incidence in developed European countries has significantly increased because of travel and immigration of individuals from highly endemic areas. We report our 29-year experience in echo-guided percutaneous needle/catheter drainage (EPND/EPCD) of ALA.
