title = "Massive bleeding from a ruptured metastatic hepatic melanoma treated by hepatic lobectomy: case report and review of the literature",
abstract = "An unusual case is reported of an occult spontaneously rupturing, hemorrhagic, metastatic melanoma of the liver treated by hepatic lobectomy, resulting in short term survival. A long, symptom free interval (13 years) after excision of the primary cutaneous lesion (stage I) preceded the appearance of the hepatic metastasis. This case illustrates the need for a careful and thorough history as well as the benefit of prompt hepatic resection for bleeding from ruptured hepatic malignancies.",
