RESUMO
The treatment of pyogenic liver abscess generally involves antibiotic therapy and radiological percutaneous drainage or aspiration. Surgical drainage is rarely advisable. We report a case of multiloculated liver abscess that was not suitable for either percutaneous drainage or open surgical drainage. The only successful approach was a left hepatectomy.
