title: [Hepatic cystadenoma: a case report].
abstract: Hepatic cystadenoma is a rare tumor arising from the biliary system. Although ultrasound and CT scan show peculiar features, diagnosis is not easy preoperatively. Because of the unreliable natural history of cystadenoma, total excision of the neoplasm by hepatic resection seems to be the treatment of choice. A case of benign cystadenoma treated by minor liver resection is reported.
