Summary

We describe a case of recurrent subphrenic abscess, with persistent biliary fistula, six years after the initial injury. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) was instrumental in establishing the diagnosis, and identifying the location and extent of the abscess.

Key words:

Biliary fistula - Subphrenic abscess - ERC - CT scan
