© 2019 The Authors Introduction: Abdominal abscesses are one of the frequent and dangerous postoperative complication. They occur as a result of failure of seams esophagojejunal anastomosis after gastrectomy (17%), perforation of gastric and duodenal ulcers (26.8%), splenectomy (25.4%), failure of biliodigestive anastomoses (23.8%), inadequate drainage of the subphrenic space (22.2%), acute pancreatitis (14%). Left-sided subphrenic abscesses are the most common of them. Case presentation: We present a patient with the left-sided subphrenic abscess, formed as a result of insolvency of the esophagojejunal anastomosis after gastrectomy and splenectomy, which underwent percutaneous drainage under the control of ultrasound and X-ray. Sanitation of the abscess cavity and the introduction of fibrin glue into it made it possible to close the fistula and heal the patient. Discussion: The described case shows that the rehabilitation of the abscess and the injection of fibrin glue into it, made it possible to avoid surgery, eliminate the abscess and close the connection with the esophagojejunal anastomosis in a short time. Conclusion: Percutaneous drainage under the control of ultrasound made it possible to avoid surgery and heal the patient with the left-sided subphrenic abscess in a short time. Fistula treatment with fibrin glue is not only effective, but is also less risky than surgery.
