title: [Echographic diagnosis of hepatic abscess (General Referral Hospital, Gbadolite, northern Zaire)].
abstract: The two most important liquefying liver diseases are the pyogenic and the amoebic liver abscess. The clinical, pathomorphological and ultrasonographic evolution is of some regularity. So a classification in three stages is of practical usefulness. The ultrasonographic characteristics of those stages for the two forms of liver abscess are presented as well as their specific treatment.
