Bruised liver?

Has anyone ever heard of a bruised liver? Is there a medical term for it? I can't find a thing on the internet with what is a bruised liver and what is the treatment or etiology (I'm guessing trauma to the liver?)

Thought maybe someone has heard of the medical term for it.

Liver Contusion which essentially is a "bruise".

Your organs bruise just like the soft tissue under your skin....

Yes, it's usually caused by blunt trauma to the abdomen. There is no treatment, just careful watching for a bleed through serial H&H's.
