Abstract

Subcapsular liver abscesses are serious clinical issues that can lead to life-threatening complications. We report a case of subcapsular liver abscesses that required multiple modes of investigation before a diagnosis could be made. This case outlines the steps taken to diagnose and identify the cause of subcapsular abscesses but is unique because the investigation results showed a high level of suspicion for subcapsular liver hematomas.
