摘要
Schistosomiasis mansoni has been described as a predisposing factor for pyogenic Liver abscess formation. Previous experimental studies have shown that acute schistosomiasis concurrent with Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia favors the colonization of the liver by the bacteria, and subsequent pyogenic liver abscess formation. In addition, clinical studies and case reports have demonstrated the association of schistosomiasis mansoni with pyogenic Liver abscesses. We describe a Brazilian patient with chronic schistosomiasis mansoni who developed recurrent pyogenic liver abscesses due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The authors review the clinical, diagnostic and treatment aspects of patients with schistosomiasis and pyogenic liver abscess reported in the medical literature.
