Zusammenfassung:This case report delves into the intricate diagnostic journey of a 42-year-old male presenting with jaundice, abdominal distension, and ascites, where medical imaging, including CT scans and ultrasound, played a central role. Noteworthy radiological findings, such as irregular nodular margins and caudate lobe hypertrophy, illuminated the distinctive pathophysiology of cryptogenic cirrhosis. The study underscores the pivotal role of medical imaging in elucidating complex liver pathologies, emphasizing the relevance of radiological approaches in diagnosing cryptogenic cirrhosis and guiding comprehensive management strategies.
