title: Pseudo-metastases in the liver: a presentation of the Budd-Chiari syndrome.
abstract: Angiographic and scintigraphic findings closely mimicked vascular liver metastases in a young woman whose Budd-Chiari syndrome is probably the result of oral contraceptive use. Histological proof should be obtained before the diagnosis of hepatic neoplasm is accepted in patients with this syndrome.
