We describe a subcapsular hematoma of the liver and pylethrombosis in a patient who developed cholestasis 4 days after severe burn injury. On the 44th hospital day, severe anemia suddenly appeared with no determinable cause. This was the initial manifestation of hepatic hematoma. Cholestatic liver injury of unknown cause lasted throughout the clinical course. The patient subsequently died of hepatic failure 27 months after the burn injury. An autopsy confirmed pylephlebitis and pylethrombosis, which were considered to have contributed to the hepatic failure. This was a rare case of hepatic hematoma and pylephlebitis and pylethrombosis that developed after burn injury.
