Abstract


Granulomas that consist of focal accumulations of macrophages are commonly found in the liver due to stimulation of the immune system by a number of pathophysiologic agents. Manifestations are variable depending on whether the underlying cause is a systemic disease or a primary hepatic granulomatous reaction. Here we report a case of a 30-year old female who presented with complaint of fever and vomiting. Liver biopsy from focal lesion was suggestive of granulomatous inflammation.
