A 61-year old man was introduced to our clinic for hemodialysis because of chronic renal failure. After admission, he suffered from acute hepatitis and pneumonia, but soon recovered. One month later, high fever, general fatigue, and icterus appeared. CT showed liver abscess in the right lobe. He was treated with antimicrobial drugs, and US guided abscess drainage was performed. Two months after drainage, the liver abscess disappeared and the drainage tube was removed. He was discharged and is now being treated with chronic hemodialysis. There has been no recurrence.
