Spontaneous hemoperitoneum from a giant multicystic hemangioma of the liver: a case report.
We describe a rare case of hemoperitoneum due to spontaneous rupture of a giant cavernous hemangioma of the liver. CT demonstrated both the intraperitoneal hemorrhage and the hepatic lesion, which showed an atypical multicystic appearance. Furthermore, CT showed the site of rupture of the hemangioma.
