Ruptured Amoebic Liver Abscess With Empyema, Venous Thromboembolism and Bronchopleural Fistula: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Amoebiasis, a gastrointestinal infection caused by Entamoeba histolytica, is the third leading cause of mortality worldwide among parasitic infections with over 100,000 deaths annually. Apart from dysentery, it can manifest as extraintestinal disease, most commonly liver abscess, and rarely pulmonary, cardiac, and brain involvement.
