title: Laparoscopic removal of an incidental ectopic liver: short report of a case.
abstract: Ectopic liver is a rare clinical entity, which may be rarely of clinical importance. It is generally reported to be small in size and without a connection to the mother liver. A case of an incidental ectopic liver nodule that was connected with a vascular peduncle to the Couinad segment IVa of the liver has been reported. Microscopic examination revealed chronic inflammatory changes, which should be considered to be the result of intermittent circulatory disturbances.
