Biliary cystadenoma: a case report and review of the literature.
Biliary cystadenoma is a rare benign neoplasm usually found in the parenchyma of the right lobe of the liver. The lesions are usually septated and represent less than 5 percent of non-parasitic cysts of biliary origin. Malignant degeneration to biliary cystadenocarcinoma is well documented, and recurrence is the rule following incomplete excision.
