A 45-year-old man who sustained blunt abdominal trauma was found to have a huge intrahepatic hematoma. Although early abdominal exploration is usually recommended for suspected hepatic injury, this case was managed nonsurgically by careful observation, with gradual resolution of the hematoma as seen on serial liver scans.
