Wandering liver (WL) is an exceptionally rare anatomical variant, scarcely described in the medical literature. This condition is characterized by hypermobility of the liver within the abdominal cavity, resulting from the weakening, laxity, or absence of the liver's suspensory ligaments. This case report describes a 28-year-old male patient with a history of Sashi-Pena syndrome who presented with chronic, nonspecific abdominal pain, in which cross-sectional imaging incidentally revealed WL. This case report seeks to provide an overview of WL, emphasizing crucial anatomical information that radiologists should include in their assessments.
Keywords: anatomical variants of the liver; falciform ligament; hepatopexy; liver infarction; wandering liver.
