Abstract
The case of a large amebic liver abscess with an atypical presentation is reported. High output bile
drainage persisted after ultrasound guided percutaneous catheter drainage because of a preexisting
communication of the abscess with the right hepatic ductal system. The abscess was managed
successfully by surgical evacuation and internal drainage into a defunctioned jejunal loop.
