Article information

El hígado «móvil» es una situación excepcional en la que el hígado, debido a la laxitud o ausencia de ligamentos de soporte, puede moverse en el plano transversal, situándose cada vez en el lado dependiente. Habitualmente se asocia también a un mesocolon largo y laxo que es generalmente responsable de los síntomas. Se han descrito muy pocos casos en la literatura.

Nosotros presentamos, por primera vez, los hallazgos en tomografía computarizada (TC) de un caso de hígado móvil con abdomen agudo causado por vólvulo de colon asociado.

Palabras clave:
hígado móvil
TC
vólvulo

A «mobile» liver is an exceptional situation in which the laxness or absence of the ligaments supporting liver allow it to move in the transversal plane so that it is always located on the dependent side. This condition is usually associated to a long and lax mesocolon, which is usually responsible for the symptoms. Very few cases have been described in the literature.

To our knowledge, this is the first report of the computed tomography (CT) findings of a mobile liver with acute abdomen caused by associated colonic volvulus.

Key words:
mobile liver
CT
volvulus
