Abstract

|
|
Actinomycosis is chronic suppurative and granulomatous disease caused by Actinomyces specises and characterized by sulfur granule formation which frequently discharged via draining sinus.
Primary hepatic actinomycosis, which was not found possible source or associated disease, is a rare form of actinomycosis and has not yet been reporred in Korea.
We report a case of primary hepatic actinomycosis presenting right upper quadrant abdominal pain with high fever as a chief complant in a 32-year-old man. Primary hepatic actinomycosis was demonstrated with ultrasonography, computed tomography,
and
pertioneoscophy and was confirmed by identification of sulfur granule, which was obtained by ultrasonography-grided percutaneous needle aspiration and biopsy.
