Abstract
A patient developed abnormal liver function tests in association with hepatic sinusoidal ectasia concurrently with relapse of Hodgkin's disease. Tests returned to normal following successful chemotherapy for the Hodgkin's disease. Sinusoidal ectasia and the related condition, peliosis hepatis, should be recognized as rare non-infiltrative manifestations of Hodgkin's disease.
