Congenital cystic disease of the liver in seven dogs.
Seven canine cases of cystic disease of the liver are described. They included 3 cases with solitary cysts, 3 with the adult type of polycystic disease of the liver and one with congenital dilatation of the bile ducts type V, i.e. fusiform dilatation of the intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. These findings are discussed with respect to the morphology and classification of human cases of cystic liver disease.
