Abstract
Hepatic angiosarcoma is an uncommon primary malignancy of the liver. It carries a poor prognosis because of very aggressive nature of the tumor. Clinical presentation of hepatic angiosarcoma is variable, most common being hepatomegaly or abdominal mass. Here we report a case of primary hepatic angiosarcoma presented with spontaneous rupture and hemoperitoneum, which was managed successfully by transarterial embolization.
