title: Angiographic demonstration of non-occlusive hepatic infarction with scintigraphic and microscopic correlation.
abstract: The angiographic appearances of histologically proven hepatic infarction without vascular occlusion has not, to our knowledge, been previously described. A case of non-occlusive hepatic infarction in a diabetic patient is presented and correlated with scintigraphic and microscopic findings. It would appear to be the first recorded case of hepatic infarction associated with diabetic ketoacidosis. A follow-up angiogram showed resolution. The literature is briefly reviewed.
