Abstract
A nontraumatic and idiopathic spontaneous subcapsular hepatic hematoma is a rare but often fatal condition. Herein, we report a case of nontraumatic progressive massive subcapsular hepatic hematoma that straddled both liver lobes and was successfully treated by repeated arterial embolization. Following treatment, the hematoma did not progress.
