Liver Cyst Infection after Colon Endoscopic Mucosal Resection in a Patient with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease on Maintenance Hemodialysis

Sumario:A 60-year-old Japanese man with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) on maintenance hemodialysis underwent colonoscopy and endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR). He was hospitalized after 4 days of fever that began the day following colonoscopy. We detected Klebsiella pneumoniae in a blood culture and a ring-shaped integration in the liver cyst by gallium scintigraphy. He recovered with antibiotics and percutaneous drainage. The patient was believed to have contracted the liver cyst infection via an injured colonic mucosa and portal vein. Thus, if a patient exhibits fever after a colon EMR, for patients with ADPKD, then a liver cyst infection should also be considered in the differential diagnosis.
