Particularly in childhood, ischaemias of the liver are very rare. This is due to numerous collateral vessels and a dual blood supply of the liver. We, therefore, report on a 2-year old boy who suffered from an anaemic infarction of the whole left lobe of the liver after a fall. The clinical course and findings, including histology, are described. After resection of the left lobe the boy was free of symptoms.
