Liver abscess formation due to enterohepatic migration of a foreign body is extremely rare. Foreign body ingestion is generally an unconscious and painless event, thus complicating preoperative diagnosis in most patients. We report the case of a 61-year-old man who presented with secondary peritonitis from a ruptured hepatic abscess after an ingested fish bone migrated into the liver.

Left Liver Lobe

Pyogenic liver abscess, having experienced an evolving pathogenesis over the years, still remains a serious problem with significant morbidity. Iatrogenic and ascending biliary infections are the most common known etiologies for hepatic abscess. Here we report an interesting case of an elderly lady admitted with abdominal pain due to a pyogenic liver abscess in the left liver lobe which was attributed to perforation by an ingested fish bone. The authors also reviewed literature for management for this rare case as there are no standard guidelines. Our patient was successfully treated with antibiotics and percutaneous drainage with foreign body left in situ.

<p class="abstract">Esophageal perforation due to foreign body ingestion may lead to serious complications. Here we present a case of an 80 year old lady with multiple co-morbidities who presented with a proximal esophageal perforation with fistula formation following ingestion of a fish bone. Due to her age and co-morbidities the decision was made to manage her conservatively by IV antibiotics, NG tube feeds and observation. Follow up after 2 months showed resolution of the perforation and fistula, without the patient needing any surgical intervention. This case highlights conservative management of esophageal perforation with complications in patients with co-morbidities where open surgery is not favoured.</p>
