  • Title: Active contrast extravasation in spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma: a rare CT finding.
    Author: Rathod K, Sheth R, Shah P, Rege S.
    Journal: J Postgrad Med; 2000; 46(1):35-6. PubMed ID: 10855078.
    Abstract:
    Spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinomas are uncommon but constitute a critical and life threatening condition. Diagnosis is important so that either surgery or emergency arterial embolisation can be considered for hepatic haemostasis. We describe active extravasation of intravenous contrast medium on CT in a patient who presented with intraperitoneal haemorrhage secondary to spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma.
