Abstract

Portal hypertension is a rare complication of liver metastases. We present a case with a history of two months of progressive painless abdominal distension and progressively increasing yellowish discoloration of the eyes. A diagnosis of multiple metastases from breast carcinoma to the liver leading to portal hypertension was made.
