摘要
We report an unusual case of Clostridium perfringens liver abscess formation after transcatheter arterialchemoembolization(TACE) for large hepatocellular carcinoma.Severe deterioration in liver and renal function accompanied with hemocytolysis was found on the 2nd day after TACE.Blood culture found Clostridium perfringens and abdominal computed tomography revealed a gas-containing abscess in the liver.Following antibiotics administration and support care, the infection was controlled and the liver and renal function turned normal.The 2nd TACE procedure was performed 1.5 mo later and no recurrent Clostridium perfringens infection was found.
