Abstract
The article reports on the CT image of a venous thrombosis of the liver with severe parenchymal damage (Budd-Chiari's syndrome) in a young woman, resulting in her death. The x-ray morphology image showed a liver pattern of reduced density in spot form with hepatomegaly and ascites. The hypodense areas were both circumscribed and disseminated over both lobes with density values between +15 and +30 HE. Enlargement of the lobus caudatus is considered as typical of the disease (4, 7).
