Meaning of PLA pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is a pocket of pus that forms in the liver due to a bacterial infection. Pus is a fluid composed of white blood cells and dead cells that typically forms when your body fights off infection. TREATMENT most liver abscesses are treated with antibiotics and catheter drainage under the guidance of ultrasonography or computed tomography (CT). In some cases, however, surgical drainage is indicated.
