case_images: Abdominal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scan of the thorax and abdomen revealed a single large abscess of approximately 750 cc volume in the right lobe of the liver with evidence of rupture into the right subdiaphragmatic space [Figure 1].

case_images: As patient orientation was not improved, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain was done about 6 days later of initiation of antibiotics, which showed a large, ring-enhancing, intracranial, space-occupying lesion involving the bilateral frontal lobes with significant perilesional edema [Figure 2].

case_images: Subsequently, MRI scan of the brain and CECT of the abdomen were repeated, which showed almost complete resolution of brain abscess and minimally organized residual abscess in the liver [Figures 3 and 4].
