Article Synopsis
- Hepatic peliosis is a rare condition in which blood-filled spaces develop in the liver, often going unnoticed until autopsy; a case of a newborn with abdominal distension led to its discovery.
- The newborn, just one day old, was found to have hepatomegaly and multiple blood cavities in the liver, confirmed through imaging and biopsy.
- The only potential risk factor identified was the mother's use of antihistaminic drugs during pregnancy, suggesting a possible but unexplained link to this uncommon condition in neonates.
