In a proportion of the patients (37 per cent)there is no evidence of a leakage from or rupture of the abscess. In spite of the abdominal manifestations there is no pus, either localized or generalized, in the peritoneal cavity. These patients constitute the group with the syndrome of \u2018pre-rupture\u2019. The cases with \u2018pre-rupture\u2019 invariably have superficial abscesses situated in the right lobe of the liver, together with fibrinous adhesions between the visceral and parietal peritoneum over the abscess site. It appears that the hepatic lesion responsible for the syndrome is at a stage just prior to leakage or frank rupture of the abscess. The pathogenesis of the syndrome is discussed and valuable physical signs in the diagnosis of the syndrome are described. By recognizing the existence of this syndrome a laparotomy could be avoided, as closed aspiration of the liver abscess and amoebicidal therapy are the only measures necessary in the management of these patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800610505","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,2]],"date-time":"2007-03-02T12:04:47Z","timestamp":1172837087000},"page":"353-355","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Amoebic liver abscess: Syndromes of \u2018pre-rupture\u2019 and intraperitoneal rupture"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"61","author":[{"given":"S","family":"Ramachandran","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical and Surgical Units, Colombo North General Hospital , Ragama,","place":["Sri-Lanka"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H D","family":"Goonatillake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical and Surgical Units, Colombo North General Hospital , Ragama,","place":["Sri-Lanka"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1974,5,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024092618243635300_bib1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"800","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-55-5-800","article-title":"The clinical syndrome of amebic abscess of the left lobe of the liver","volume":"55","author":"Alkan","year":"1961","journal-title":"Ann.
