Common complications of amebic liver abscess (ALA) include rupture into the peritoneum,
thorax, and pericardium. Rupture into the duodenum is extremely rare. We report a
case of ALA rupturing into the duodenum, forming a fistulous tract. To the best of
our knowledge, this is the fifth endoscopically and radiologically proven case of
hepatoduodenal fistula caused by liver abscess.
