They often occur in immunosuppressed patients, or those with underlying liver disease. We report the case of a 22-year-old patient, without known immunodeficiency factors, surgical history or notion of tuberculous contacts, who was admitted for generalized peritonitis and ileal perforation. An ileostomy was performed. The infectious syndrome persisted in post-operative period, associated with painful hepatomegaly. An contrast-enhanced abdominal CT scan led to the diagnosis of miliary abscess of the liver. A blood culture isolated Escherichia coli. The treatment included antibiotics and the clinical evolution was favorable. The follow-up abdominal CT scan was normal. Intestinal continuity was restored without complications. Miliary abscess of the liver is rare and requires rapid diagnosis. The treatment is based on antibiotic therapy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaa278","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,4]],"date-time":"2020-08-04T19:15:08Z","timestamp":1596568508000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Miliary abscess of the liver: unusual complication of intestinal perforation"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2020","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1266-8759","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raouf Fayisall","family":"Geraldo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, \u201cSaint Jean de Dieu\u201d Hospital, Afagnan, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Boyodi Katanga","family":"Tchangai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Sylvanus Olympio Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Efo\u00e9-Ga Yawod Olivier","family":"Amouzou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Kara Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fousseni","family":"Alassani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Sylvanus Olympio Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Birega","family":"Koutora","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Kara Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abossisso","family":"Sakiye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Kara Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kokou Kouliwa","family":"Kanassoua","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Kara Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David Ekou\u00e9","family":"Dosseh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Lome, Lom\u00e9, Togo"},{"name":"Department of Visceral Surgery, Kara Teaching Hospital, Lom\u00e9, Togo"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020083112521119300_ref1","first-page":"291","article-title":"Multiple liver abscesses caused by Yersinia enterocolitica: a case report","volume":"72","author":"Ismail","year":"1987","journal-title":"S Afr Med J"},{"key":"2020083112521119300_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"374","DOI":"10.1080\/00313029500169353","article-title":"Multiple hepatic abscesses due to Yersinia enterocolitica","volume":"27","author":"Strungs","year":"1995","journal-title":"Pathology"},{"key":"2020083112521119300_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"938","DOI":"10.1093\/clinids\/18.6.938","article-title":"Multiple liver abscesses due to Yersinia enterocolitica discloses primary hemochromatosis: three case reports and review","volume":"18","author":"Vadillo","year":"1994","journal-title":"R Clin Infect Dis"},{"key":"2020083112521119300_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1125","DOI":"10.2169\/internalmedicine.31.1125","article-title":"Multiple liver abscesses secondary to Yersinia enterocolitica","volume":"31","author":"Nemoto","year":"1992","journal-title":"Intern Med"},{"key":"2020083112521119300_ref5","first-page":"383","article-title":"Miliary abscess of the liver during septicemia caused by Staphylococcus.
