Abstract:
Spontaneous rupture of amyloid liver is a fatal complication. A 48-year-old man with systemic amyloidosis secondary to multiple myeloma presented with acute hemoperitoneum. Emergency angiogram showed extravasation of contrast from the liver into the sub-hepatic space, which was successfully stopped by embolization of the right hepatic artery.
