Abstract
Ectopic liver tissue is a rare entity that most commonly occurs on the gallbladder wall. Rare case reports within the literature have documented cases of ectopic liver within the pylorus of the stomach. Therefore, we present a case of a patient with ectopic liver tissue occurring in the gastric fundus wall.
