An accessory lobe of the liver is an uncommon occurrence and often an incidental finding. We present the case of a middle-aged man whose upper abdominal pain was relieved following removal of an accessory lobe. His preoperative imaging had led us to believe that he had lesser omental lymphadenopathy. We draw attention to the fact that this congenital abnormality can cause diagnostic confusion.
