Article Synopsis
- The case report discusses a 51-year-old male who had recurrent cholangitis and was found to have an intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN) in his liver, identified through imaging and biopsies.
- Cytological analysis showed clustered cells with specific characteristics, and the diagnosis suggested an intermediate grade IOPN, leading to a left lateral liver segmentectomy for the patient.
- Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms pose diagnostic challenges due to similarities in symptoms and pathology with both malignant and non-malignant lesions; they must be surgically removed because they can be precursors to liver cancer.
