Case Report: Portal cavernoma related to multiple liver hydatidosis: A rare case of fatal cataclysmic haemorrhage. [version 2; peer review: 2 approved]
Clinical presentation of liver hydatidosis can vary from asymptomatic forms to lethal complications. We report herein a rare case of a 27-year-old male from a rural Tunisian region who presented with large-abundance haematemesis, haemodynamic instability, and marked biological data of hypersplenism....
