Abstract	:	Case Presentation: A 61-year-old female presented to the emergency department with right upper quadrant abdominal pain following a cholecystectomy 18 days prior. Computed tomography (CT) of her abdomen demonstrated a large abscess in her post-hepatic fossa. She was admitted to the general surgery service and received an image-guided percutaneous drain placement with interventional radiology with immediate return of purulent material. She was discharged home after a three-day hospital course with outpatient antibiotics and follow-up.
