[Accessory liver lobe torsion mimicking a pancreatic tumor].
We report a case of liver accessory lobe torsion. In few published cases, pre-operative diagnosis was made by radiologic findings for non specific abdominal pain. In reported case, only surgery led to diagnosis, whereas pancreatic tumor was suspected by ultrasound and tomodensitometry.
