Biliary cystadenoma is a type of rare liver cystic tumor. Intrahepatic biliary cystadenomas are the most common, while extrahepatic biliary cystadenomas are rarely seen. Biliary cystadenoma tends to occur in middle-aged to older women and there is a lack of specific preoperative diagnostic markers. Recent advancements in technology and the development of the SpyGlass system have led to an increased use of cholangioscopy. Herein, we report a patient in whom a space-occupying lesion was found in the bile duct by SpyGlass, and who later underwent radical surgery. The pathology report indicated that the final diagnosis was biliary cystadenoma. SpyGlass cholangioscopy may be a novel and effective diagnostic method for biliary cystadenoma.

Article Synopsis
- Choledochal cysts are congenital bile duct abnormalities classified into five main types, with this case focusing on an intrahepatic variant mistaken for biliary cystadenoma.
- A 35-year-old woman experienced pain and a palpable mass, leading to diagnostic imaging that revealed a complicated cyst affecting her liver's bile ducts.
- Surgical intervention was required due to the cyst's complexity, and while the gallbladder was removed, the cyst could not be entirely separated from the common hepatic duct, highlighting the need for careful evaluation to prevent complications.

Biliary cystadenomas are uncommon lesions with clinical and radiological characteristics that overlap with other cystic liver lesions. Here, we intended to discuss a biliary cystadenoma found in a 37-year-old female patient who had been treated for a liver abscess and had been sent to our clinic with a long-term hydatid cyst diagnosis.

Article Synopsis
- Mucinous cystic neoplasms of the liver (MCN-L) are typically benign and asymptomatic.
- Rarely, MCN-L can lead to serious complications like jaundice and acute abdominal pain, sometimes due to cyst prolapse or rupture.
- A case is presented where a patient with MCN-L experienced these complications, but surgical treatment resulted in successful management and normal follow-up imaging.

The recently published WHO Reporting System for Pancreaticobiliary Cytopathology (World Health Organization [WHO] System) is an international approach to the standardized reporting of pancreaticobiliary cytopathology, updating the Papanicolaou Society of Cytopathology System for Reporting Pancreaticobiliary Cytology (PSC System). Significant changes were made to the categorization of benign neoplasms, intraductal neoplasms, mucinous cystic neoplasms, and malignant neoplasms considered low grade. Benign neoplasms, such as serous cystadenoma, categorized as Neoplastic: benign in the PSC system, are categorized as Benign/negative for malignancy in the WHO system.
