Abstract

Spontaneous rupture of the liver due to preeclampsia is a rare condition of pregnant women, and it can be very dangerous if not treated. We report here on a case of successfully treating spontaneous liver rupture associated with preeclampsia by performing transcatheter hepatic arterial embolization. A 41-year-old woman with spontaneous rupture of the liver associated with preeclampsia was treated by hepatic arterial embolization.

전자간증과 관련되어 발생한 자발적 간 파열은 임신과 관련되어 매우 드물며 치료되지 않으면 매우 위험하다. 저자들은 전자간증과 관련되어 발생한 자발적 간 파열을 간동맥색전술을 이용하여 성공적으로 치료한 예를 보고하고자 한다.
