Popis: Intrahepatic nonparasitic cystic disease is rare and may be of congenital or neoplastic origin. The most frequent symptoms and signs are nonspecific and include pain, nausea, fullness, increased girth, and palpable mass. Interventional therapy is reserved for symptomatic patients, which usually corresponds to cysts5 cm in diameter. Retrospective analysis revealed 26 cases of intrahepatic cystic disease over 15 years at our institution. We discuss the case of a patient who had bilobular biliary cystadenomatous disease, a rare, benign variant of intrahepatic nonparasitic cystic disease.
