Aseptic Liver Abscesses as an Exceptional Finding in Cogan's Syndrome.

Abstract

Aseptic abscesses of deep organs are very rare and their pathogenesis is unclear. Most reported cases affect spleen or liver and are associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Behҫet's disease and/or other cutaneous or arthritic manifestations (1, 2). Here, we report the first case of aseptic liver abscesses diagnosed in a patient with Cogan's syndrome, a rheumatic disease primarily affecting the inner ears and eyes.
