A–D, Case (2) A female patient with a left subhepatic abscess about 8 × 4 cm, the patient was planned for drainage of the abscess by insertion of a pigtail catheter10 F under 3D US guidance. A X-plane imaging showing left subhepatic collection (Abscess) at the reference plane, and orthogonal plane with lateral tilt of nine degrees, B X-plane imaging of the hepatic abscess with the tip of pigtail noted inside the abscess at the reference plane and the orthogonal plane, C 3D images and volume rendering images of the left subhepatic collection, D 3D images showing the tip of pigtail inside the left subhepatic collection. Follow-up of the patient by the US reveals total resolution of the left subhepatic collection
