Abstract:
52 patients suffered from hepatic multi-abscess with different causes, suitable for selected study criteria have been treated in combination of internal therapeutics and ECHO controlled pus-sucking. The result: Male/female: 49/3; The biggest number of abscesses in the patient was 20, the smallest number was 2. At each percutaneous puntion, pus-suckings were done maximally for 3 abscesses, minimally for 1 abscess. In a performance, 2-3 percutaneous functions, were applied and pus-suckings were done maximally at 5 abscesses. Most abscesses (75.6%) needed one pus-sucking; 24.4% of the rest needed 2-3 times. Therapeutics result: all patients recovered (52/52).
