Abstract:
:The authors report 2 cases of acute hepatic failure secondary to a pulmonary embolism, the [atypical] symptomatology of which considerably interfered with diagnosis. A review of the literature confirms the rarity of embolic pathology as causing acute cardiac liver. The authors emphasize the importance of echotomography (cardiac and abdominal) in seeking dilatation of the right heart cavities, as well as of the inferior vena cava and hepatic veins.
