Biliary cystadenoma (BCA) is a rare tumor which is difficult to diagnose before surgery. We present a case of 73 years old woman with a previous histological diagnosis of biliary cystadenoma occurred in 2009, surgically removed. In January 2018, abdomen Computerized Tomography scan (CTs) showed a 65 mm diameter cystic mass in the fifth hepatic segment. Even if the patient refused to undergo surgical resection due to her several comorbilities, imaging features and clinical history are suggestive for BCA recurrence.

Biliary cystadenoma (BCA) is a rare tumor which is difficult to diagnose before surgery. We present a case of 73 years old woman with a previous histological diagnosis of biliary cystadenoma occurred in 2009, surgically removed. In January 2018, abdomen Computerized Tomography scan (CTs) showed a 65 mm diameter cystic mass in the fifth hepatic segment. Even if the patient refused to undergo surgical resection due to her several comorbilities, imaging features and clinical history are suggestive for BCA recurrence.File in questo prodotto:
