摘要
A 33-year-old man with hepatic bleeding was transferred to our hospital. Conventional plain and enhanced spiral computed tomography (CT) with a Siemens Somatom Plus-S scanner (Siemens AG, Erlangen, Germany) revealed a large hepatic hematoma and active extrahepatic bleeding. A unified spiral CT and angiography system (IVR-CT/Angio system; Toshiba Medical Systems, Tokyo, Japan) was employed, and selective catheterization-aided CT arteriography (CTA) showed additional active extrahepatic bleeding. These findings were not detected on conventional spiral CT or angiography. The CTA findings led us to successful transarterial embolization (TAE). After TAE, CT scan revealed that the contrast material injected in the hepatic artery was diffusing into the periportal space. Twenty-four days after TAE, a central bisegmentectomy of the liver was performed. Unfortunately, the cause of the hepatic bleeding was not clear pathologically.
