Liver Peliosis: A Life-Threatening Condition With No Clear Indication for Liver Transplant.
Experimental and Clinical Transplantation 2018 March
We present a 21-year-old patient, remarkable for huge hepatomegaly with the liver, occupying almost the entire abdominal cavity, and mild portal hypertension due to splenic vein compression. After ultrasonography-guided liver biopsy, performed to establish the diagnosis, the patient had bleeding from the liver. Fortunately, emergency laparotomy was started immediately, and the patient was saved. Macroscopically, the liver appeared to be of purple-red color, flabby to the touch, and able to be easily wrinkled with fingers. When all available clinical data were considered, a diagnosis of liver peliosis was made. The patient was recommended close follow-up at the specialized liver surgery clinic with access to emergency surgical procedures, including liver transplant.
