Abstract:
Spontaneous hepatic hemorrhage (SHH) is a very rare but life-threatening entity that results from a breach in the hepatic parenchyma without any external cause, the most common being hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatic adenoma. We present a case of SHH without any underlying tumor or injury. The cause in our patient remained unclear, but we hypothesize that the patient's SHH was most likely coagulopathy-related.
