Acute abdomen due to eosinophilic colitis with liver abscess.

Eosinophilic colitis is an uncommon condition and rarely presents as acute abdomen. We report a 65-year-old man who presented with acute abdomen-- severe pain in upper abdomen, with pyrexia, tachycardia, guarding and right-sided intercostal tenderness--secondary to eosinophilic colitis and was successfully managed. He had additional problems in form of cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis, cholangitis, pyogenic liver abscesses and gout.
