[Multiple liver abscesses in long-term intrauterine device].
We report on two cases of multiple hepatic abscesses caused by sever pelvic inflammatory disease secondary to intrauterine device. Such complication have previously been reported only twice. The course of the diseases were non-specifically for a long time. As causative agent we isolated Klebsiella pneumoniae in the first case and in the other Fusobacterium necroforum. The patients were cured with combined operative and medical therapy.
