Liver abscess is mostly either pyogenic or amebic. Fungal and mycobacterial liver abscesses are rare and mostly associated with immunosuppression. The occurrence of fungal liver abscess with hydatid cyst was never reported previously. This case created diagnostic difficulty, whether we are dealing with liver abscess or hydatid cyst. Sometimes, it may be possible that concurrent occurrence of hydatid cyst with liver abscess or hydatid cyst become infected and mimic like liver abscess.
肝脓肿大多为化脓性或阿米巴性。真菌性和分枝杆菌性肝脓肿较为罕见,且大多与免疫抑制有关。此前从未有关于真菌性肝脓肿合并包虫囊肿的报道。该病例造成了诊断困难,难以判断我们面对的是肝脓肿还是包虫囊肿。有时,可能会同时出现肝脓肿合并包虫囊肿的情况,或者包虫囊肿发生感染并类似肝脓肿。
