Abstract

A <<mobile>> liver is an exceptional situation in which the laxness or absence of the ligaments supporting liver allow it to move in the transversal plane so that it is always located on the dependent side. This condition is usually associated to a long and lax mesocolon, which is usually responsible for the symptoms. Very few cases have been described in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the computed tomography (CT) findings of a mobile liver with acute abdomen caused by associated colonic volvulus.
