Massive hemorrhage from ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma is uncommon. We report our experience in three cases of ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosed by computed tomography (CT). CT was useful in detecting ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma showing the parenchymal tumor per se, defining the extent of the hematoma, and showing serial density changes with the age of the hematomas.

We recently experienced an omental teratoma in a 34-year-old woman. Ultrasonography (US) revealed a large mass of mixed echogenicity, occupying the entire lower abdomen. Computed tomography showed an inhomogeneous solid and cystic mass in the abdominal cavity containing fat and calcification.

Hemorrhage from ruptured hepatoma is a serious complication. Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) is a choice of the treatment for control of hemorrhage. But conventional angiography may be useless for detection of bleeding site from ruptured hepatoma. We report two cases of ruptured hepatoma with detection of bleeding site by Lipiodol angiography.
