Sub phrenic collections are a common sequel to hepatobiliary surgery. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are necessary to reduce the morbidity and mortality to a bare minimum. Contrast enhanced CT (CECT) scan is the best imaging modality to identify the location and approximate size of the collection. Laparoscopic drainage is the best option for treating sub phrenic abscesses. A case of a sub phrenic abscess drained laparoscopically is presented to highlight the efficacy of this approach.
