Near-Fatal Hepatic Complication After Cardiac Catheter Ablation

Radiofrequency cardiac ablation is increasingly performed for the management of dysrhythmias. Bleeding is a well-known complication of this procedure. We present a rare case of a near-fatal iatrogenic hepatic hemorrhage after cardiac catheter ablation. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
