A computed tomography scan was performed for abdominal distention and upper gastrointestinal bleeding, which revealed a &ldquo;mass lesion&rdquo; in the left liver lobe. Analysis of antecedent events and the clinical and laboratory course uncovered an iatrogenic etiology and pathogenesis of the lesion. As the nature of the lesion was clarified, no specific therapy was required. This case is presented to show a serious yet preventable complication of a commonly performed procedure.Keywords: portal vein thrombosis, liver mass, umbilical venous catheterHaafiz AWilliams JLAndres JMNovak DADove Medical PressarticleDiseases of the digestive system.
