Abstract:
:A septic course suggestive of intra-abdominal abscess followed surgery in a small child with a perforated appendix. Usual diagnostic studies, fluoroscopy, and rectal and wound exploration failed to localized an abscess. The use of gallium 67 scanning accurately localized multiple abscesses which were successfully drained.
