ABSTRACT
A case of massive central rupture of the liver in which the patient became jaundiced is described. Autopsy revealed, in addition to the intrahepatic haematoma, large areas of infarction in the liver, some of which had become infected and had given rise to septic embolization to various organs. There was deranged liver function which is ascribed to the structural changes found in the liver. The occurrence of hepatocellular jaundice with this type of liver injury has not, to our knowledge, been previously recorded. It is suggested that immediate investigation and treatment are essential if the patient is to survive.(AU)
