Abstract

We present the case of a patient who sustained blunt liver trauma after a motor vehicle crash that was subsequently complicated by the development of a large biloma. Early use of computed tomography (CT) scan and HIDA (hepatobiliary iminodiacetic acid) imaging enabled the prompt identification and management of the problem.
