ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Bacterial liver abscess is one of the common infectious diseases of the digestive system. Invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess syndrome (IKLAS) refers to cases where, in addition to liver abscess, there are migratory infections foci or other invasive manifestations. The clinical characteristics and risk factors of IKLAS are not fully elucidated, and there is a lack of research on the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different treatment methods. This study aims to compare the clinical characteristics of patients with IKLAS and non-IKLAS, and explore effective and economical treatment methods.METHODS:
This retrospective study collected medical records of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess treated at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2010 to December 2023. A total of 201 patients were included, dividing into an IKLAS group (n=37) and a non-IKLAS group (n=164). Differences in demographics, symptoms and signs, laboratory indicators, imaging characteristics, comorbidities, treatment methods, treatment outcomes, and direct treatment costs between 2 groups were analyzed. The study also compared the effectiveness and costs of different treatment methods.RESULTS:
Compared with the non-IKLAS group, the proportion of patients with diabetes, Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA)≥2, immune deficiency, anemia, and thrombocytopenia in the IKLAS group was higher, and the level of procalcitonin at the onset in the IKLAS group was also higher (all P<0.05). In terms of symptoms and signs, the IKLAS group had a higher proportion of visual abnormalities and a lower proportion of complaints of abdominal pain (both P<0.05). In terms of complications, the incidence of combined pleural effusion, pulmonary infection, acute renal failure, respiratory failure, and multiple organ failure was higher in the IKLAS group (all P<0.05). The IKLAS group had a higher proportion of patients treated with antibiotics alone (24.32% vs 11.59%), while the non-IKLAS group had a higher proportion of patients treated with antibiotics combined with puncture and drainage (86.59% vs 64.86%, both P<0.05). The overall effective rate of the IKLAS group (83.78%) was lower than that of the non-IKLAS group (95.73%), and the treatment and drug costs were higher (all P<0.05). The treatment method of antibiotics combined with surgical resection of infectious foci showed a 100% improvement rate, antibiotics combined with abscess puncture and drainage had an 84.9% improvement rate, and in antibiotics alone had an 82.1% improvement rate, with statistical differences among the 3 treatment methods (P<0.05). In terms of treatment costs, antibiotics alone were the most expensive (P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
Patients with IKLAS have poorer prognosis and higher direct medical costs. The combination of abscess puncture and drainage or surgery has a higher improvement rate and lower hospitalization costs compared to antibiotics alone, suggesting that surgical intervention may reduce antibiotic costs and save medical expenses.Palavras-chave
