ABSTRACT
A young man presented with a history of abdominal pain and distension for 4 days. Diagnosis of spontaneous hemoperitoneum was made after clinical examination, abdominal USG and a diagnostic peritoneal tap. Emergency laparotomy revealed massive hemoperitoneum with extensive bilobar hepato-cellular carcinoma (HCC). A ruptured aberrant vessel communicating between the intercostal vessel and HCC in the liver had caused massive hemoperitoneum.
