Abstract

A 63-year-old woman was admitted with high fever. Laboratory tests showed leukocytosis and elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed multiple liver and splenic tumors. We diagnosed phlegmonous gastritis with multiple liver and splenic abscesses based on a discharge of pus from the gastric ulcer on biopsy obtained during esophagogastroduodenoscopy. She showed remission after spontaneous drainage and treatment with antibiotics. A search of the literature yielded no other cases of phlegmonous gastritis with multiple liver and splenic abscesses, and we therefore report this case.<br>
