Abstract
Five geriatric patients with spontaneous rupture of the liver caused by hepatic malignancies were operated upon without mortality. Liver resection seems to be the treatment of choice, but in selected cases with unresectable tumours ligation of the hepatic artery alone is preferable to an attempt to control haemorrhage by packing and suture.Entities:
