Total Laparoscopic Resection of an Extrahepatic Mucinous Biliary Cystadenoma with Liver Involvement (with Video).

Background: Intrahepatic mucinous biliary cystadenoma is rare, and extrahepatic MBC is even rarer. To our knowledge, total laparoscopic resection of an extrahepatic MBC that had extended intrahepatically has never been reported.

Patients And Methods: A 28-year-old female presented to our hospital with upper abdomen pain.

Biliary cystadenoma: Case report with MRI findings and surgical confirmation.

Biliary cystadenoma is a very uncommon benign cystic neoplasm involving the liver and the biliary tract. Most common presentations include right upper quadrant pain, nausea, vomiting, obstructive jaundice, and enlarging liver size. It can mimic many more commonly occurring diseases such as hepatic cyst, hepatic abscess, hydatid disease of the liver, and hepatic tuberculosis.

Cystadenofibroma with Mullerian-Type Epithelium and Stroma in the Liver: A Report of an Unusual Diagnosis and Discussion of Possible Etiologies.

Primary cystic neoplasms in the liver with ovarian type stroma typically represent mucinous cystic neoplasms. These tumors contain a cuboidal to columnar epithelium with variably mucinous cytoplasm. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports of primary hepatic cystic neoplasms with ovarian-type stroma and ciliated epithelial lining.

Hepatic Cysts: Reappraisal of the Classification, Terminology, Differential Diagnosis, and Clinicopathologic Characteristics in 258 Cases.

The literature on liver cysts is highly conflicting, mostly owing to definitional variations. Two hundred and fifty-eight ≥1 cm cysts evaluated pathologically using updated criteria were classifiable as: I. Ductal plate malformation related (63%); that is, cystic bile duct hamartoma or not otherwise specified-type benign biliary cyst (35 with polycystic liver disease).

Complete resection for a giant recurrent biliary cystadenoma: A surgical case report and review of literature.

Background: Biliary cystadenoma is a rare cystic neoplasm of the liver. The clinical signs and symptoms are nonspecific, and treatment strategy is variable.

Case Presentation: In this study, we presented a case of a 32-year-old female with multilocular biliary cystadenoma.

Rare variant of type V choledochal cyst masquerading as a biliary cystadenoma.

Cystic lesions of the liver are commonly encountered in routine clinical practice with a reported prevalence of 15%-18%. They may range from a benign simple developmental cyst to a malignancy. Therefore, an accurate diagnosis is essential for adequate management.

Intrahepatic Biliary Cystadenoma With Colonic Adenomatous Polyps in a Patient With Chronic Hepatitis B: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Biliary cystadenomas are rare cystic tumors of the bile duct system that are mostly benign but also have the possibility of malignant transformation. Biliary cystadenomas mostly occur in the intrahepatic bile ducts and are more common in middle-aged women. Due to non-specific radiology, preoperative diagnosis is difficult and is usually performed by postoperative pathology.

Case Report: Robotically Assisted Excision of Cystic Tumor Located in a Difficult to Access Area in the Liver.

Cystic liver lesions may be benign cysts, parasitic infestations, or malignant tumors requiring surgical resection. Hilar location and relation to major vasculature present challenges in conventional surgical access and resection. We describe totally robotic excision of a cystadenoma in a 55-year-old woman without complication.

Cystic Primary Hepatic Neuroendocrine Tumor.

Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) can arise throughout the body. Most NETs in the liver are metastatic tumors; primary hepatic NET (PHNET) is extremely rare. A diagnosis of PHNET is very difficult.

Radiologic Reporting of Simple Hepatic Cyst Versus Biliary Cystadenoma May Lead to Unnecessary Surgery.

Background And Aims: Simple liver cyst (SHC) is a benign condition with no malignant potential. They are typically discovered incidentally due to the increased use of abdominal imaging, but some patients may present with abdominal pain. A radiologist's differential diagnosis in cases of SHC will often include "rule out biliary cystadenoma.

Ga-FAPI-46 PET/MR Detects Recurrent Cholangiocarcinoma and Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm in a Patient Showing Increasing CEA with Negative F-FDG PET/CT and Conventional CT.

A patient with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who underwent hepatic resection with completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy presented with increased CEA levels. Previous whole abdominal and chest CT scan revealed no evidence of local recurrence or metastasis.  Ga-FAPI-46 PET showed significantly higher tumor-to-background contrast of recurrent tumor and nodal metastasis, which were undetectable in the FDG PET or conventional CT scan.

Rare monolocular intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma: A case report.

Background: Intrahepatic biliary cystadenoma (IBC) is a rare benign hepatic tumor that is often misdiagnosed as other hepatic cystic diseases. Therefore, imaging examinations are required for preoperative diagnosis. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has gained increasing popularity as an emerging imaging modality and it is considered the primary method for screening IBC because of its specificity of performance.

Giant haemorrhagic hepatic cyst with flame-like morphology in a patient with polycystic kidney and liver disease.

Introduction: Intracystic haemorrhage is a rare complication of hepatic cysts, and is often mistaken for a malignant lesion.

Case Report: A 55-year-old female with a history of polycystic kidney and liver disease presented with a six-month history of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, early satiety, shortness of breath and 5 kg of weight loss. Imaging revealed a 20 cm mixed solid-cystic hepatic lesion containing peripheral avascular mobile echogenic material with a flame-like morphology.

[Diagnosis and management of liver cysts].

Cystic hepatic lesions are frequent and sometimes large. They are generally asymptomatic and discovered by chance. The differential diagnosis of these lesions includes congenital, post-traumatic, benign or malignant tumors, as well as infectious pathologies.

A rare case of extrahepatic biliary mucinous cystic neoplasm in a middle-aged woman: A case report.

Biliary mucinous cystic neoplasms are very rare tumors of the biliary tract with malignant potential. Preoperative diagnosis is challenging, as clinical, biochemical and radiological features are not specific. Surgical resection with negative margins is the gold standard treatment for these uncommon lesions.

Clinicopathological Evaluation of 15 Ectopic Adrenal Tissues.

Background: Ectopic adrenal tissue is a rare condition associated with embryological development defects seen in many different areas in the abdomen and pelvis. Here, we aimed to discuss the clinicopathological features of ectopic adrenal tissues diagnosed in our clinic, in light of the literature.

Methods: We included cases of ectopic adrenal tissues incidentally detected in the specimens from patients undergoing operation for various diagnoses during 2012- March 2020.

Primary Echinococcus Hydatid Cyst of the Uterus: An Unusual Location.

Hydatidosis is a widespread anthropozoonosis. It can affect almost any part of the body, but it occurs most commonly in the liver (75%) and the lungs (15%). Its occurrence in female genital tract, especially the uterus, is very rare.

[Squamous cell carcinoma of the gallbladder complicating a cystic dilation of the cystic duct and common bile duct: a case report].

Congenital cystic disease of the biliary tree is a known risk factor for gallbladder cancer. We here report a case of squamous cell carcinoma of the bile duct (BD) complicating a cystic dilatation of the bile ducts in a 54-year-old woman hospitalized for biliary pancreatitis. Abdominal scanner showed nodular thickening of the fundus of the gallbladder and fusiform dilation of the cystic duct and the main bile duct (VBP) with lesion of the tail of the pancreas, initially suggesting mucinous cystadenoma.

A Novel Treatment for Metastatic Serous Cystadenocarcinoma Using a Microwave Ablation: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

The incidence of pancreatic cystic neoplasms has grown because of increased detection. Among these lesions, serous cystadenoma was traditionally thought to be universally benign and indolent. However, there is an exceedingly rare malignant variant of serous cystadenoma known as serous cystadenocarcinoma (SCAC) that can exhibit local invasion into adjacent structures, hepatic implants, and metastatic spread to the abdominal viscera.

Differentiation and management of hepatobiliary mucinous cystic neoplasms: a single centre experience for 8 years.

Background: Hepatobiliary mucinous cystic neoplasms (H-MCNs) are relatively rare cystic neoplasms in the liver. The differential diagnosis of H-MCNs remains big challenging, and the management and prognosis between the hepatic simple cyst (HSC) and H-MCNs are quite different. This study aimed to present our experience in the management of H-MCNs and provide a preoperative H-MCNs risk prediction nomogram to differentiating H-MCNs from liver cystic lesions.

Spontaneous intracapsular hemorrhage of a giant hepatic cavernous hemangioma: a rare case report and literature review.

Background: Hepatic cavernous hemangioma is the most common type of benign liver tumor. Although ruptures and hemorrhages of hepatic hemangioma are rare complications, they are associated with high mortality. Most practitioners only pay more attention to abdominal hemorrhages caused by the rupture of hepatic hemangiomas.
