Abstract:
We present a case of Yersinia enterocolitica bacteremia and sepsis with multiple liver abscesses mimicking metastatic liver disease. The patient was treated successfully with conservative therapies. Interestingly, colonic tubular adenoma was discovered during the diagnostic evaluation, and consequently we explore the possibility of an association between Yersinia bacteremia and colorectal neoplasia.
