Abstract
Masochistic practices include self-inflicted oral injury, inflicted on onself without the notion of suicide. Hemorrhage differs from mild oozing or leakage at the point of an injury to substantial loss of blood resulting in full exsanguination. Liver clot is a rare complication associated with surgery and trauma. But this time, this complication is seen in association with masochistic practices. It has to be noted that the tissues of oral cavity are highly vascular. This case report represents a unique case or probably the first case in the occurrence of “liver clot” or “current jelly clot” in succession to the masochistic practices by the child.
