Core Tip	Peliosis hepatis (PH) is a vascular lesion of the liver that mimics a hepatic tumor. PH has been associated with the use of anabolic steroids or immunosuppressive drugs. Although most patients remain asymptomatic, some patients suffer from PH-related portal hypertension complications. This case study describes a 46-year-old man who underwent long-term immunosuppressive therapy following renal transplantation. Upon development of abdominal distention, PH was diagnosed by pathological analysis. Ultimately, the patient suffered hepatic failure when the immunosuppressive agent was withdrawn and died.
