INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Hepatic round ligament necrosis is a rare condition that has atypical clinical presentation. Its diagnosis; however, being a combination of clinical and biological signs, is very dependent on the computed topography scan.
CASE PRESENTATION: This report demonstrates 2 cases that had different presentations. Case 1 was an elderly female with multiple comorbidities presenting with signs of sepsis, perturbation of liver enzymes and presence of thrombosis of portal vein as well as dilatation of bile ducts. On the other hand, case 2 was a younger male patient presenting with inflammatory syndrome, no other biological abnormalities and only an evident fatty stranding in his radiological workup.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Our 2 cases had different presentations in severity and were thus treated differently. The first patient had clinical, biological and radiological signs of severity; thus, he was treated surgically. On the other hand, the other patient with benign presentation was treated medically with antibiotics.
CONCLUSION: In the absence of recommendations concerning the management of hepatic round ligament necrosis, we suggest that treatment choice be based on the severity signs being: clinical, biological or radiological.
