Abstract

1.
1. Nine cases (one reported herein and eight collected from the literature) of subcapsular liver injuries presenting a certain or probable hemorrhage to the biliary tract have been studied. This symptom has been named “hemobilia.”
2.
2. Hemobilia may cause (a) hematemesis and melena, (b) biliary colic, (c) biliary obstruction or (d) gall bladder distention.
3.
3. Hemobilia should be looked for in all cases of liver injuries with vague symptoms. It might be a frequent symptom of value in the diagnosis and understanding of these cases.
