الوصف: A 34-year-old woman entered the emergency room with abdominal pain in the right upper quadrant. Computed tomography scan showed a nutmeg liver suspected for increased venous pressure by thrombosis of the liver veins, Budd-Chiari malformation, or right-sided heart failure. Interestingly, the diagnosis was pelvic inflammatory disease complicated by the Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome (FHCS).Pelvic inflammatory disease resulted from an ascended infection by Chlamydia trachomatis. FHCS was caused by perihepatitis defined as inflammation of the peritoneal capsule of the liver. Fast diagnosis and treatment is crucial. Therefore, we report a case of FHCS characterized by a nutmeg liver on computed tomography. Keywords: Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome, Perihepatitis, Hepatomegaly, Nutmeg liver, Pelvic Inflammatory disease, Chlamydia trachomatis
