Fitz-Hugh-Curtis Syndrome Presenting as Perihepatic and Subcapsular Enhancement on MRI.

Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome (FHCS) is a rare complication of pelvic inflammatory disease and its MRI findings remain poorly described. A 34-year-old woman was raced to our hospital with slight fever and severe right upper quadrant pain. Gadoxetic acid-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging revealed high-intensity regions in the surface and subcapsule of the right liver on T2-weighted imaging and on diffusion-weighted imaging. A definitive diagnosis of FHCS was confirmed based on high titers of serum IgA and IgG antibodies to Chlamydia trachomatis. She was treated with oral azithromycin and discharged 6 days after admission with improvement of her symptoms. To our knowledge, this report represents a valuable addition to the FHCS literature describing MRI findings in the early stage of FHCS onset.
