Tuberculous liver abscess (TLA) is an extremely rare condition, even in the country where tuberculosis is an alarming public health problem. Primary TLA, with no evidence of infection elsewhere, is even less common. Herein we report a case with primary TLA and review the literature. (C) 2004 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.
