Arteriovenous fistula presents rarely with liver involvement. A 73-year-old man had new-onset ascites, hepatomegaly, and abnormal liver and renal function test results. An abdominal computed tomogram revealed a 7.6-cm internal iliac aneurysm but no other abnormality to account for his ascites. An aortogram demonstrated a 1.5-cm internal iliac arteriovenous fistula that subsequently was repaired, leading to resolution of his symptoms and laboratory abnormalities. High-output cardiac failure should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with new-onset massive ascites, hepatomegaly, and liver test abnormalities.
