BACKGROUND: This article reports a case of hepar lobatum, a peculiar and rare type of liver deformity, originally described in association with infectious or parasitic diseases and with malignancies. CASE REPORT: We have described a 42-year-old woman with this disorder, which was unrelated to the known conditions and referred for liver transplantation for having clinical manifestations of cirrhosis, portal hypertension, and impaired hepatic function. CONCLUSIONS: The observed histologic pattern suggests that hepar lobatum could be, in some patients, the effect of a primary process of hamartomatous origin involving the organ vascular supply.
