Biliary cystadenocarcinoma: sonographic and cytologic findings.
Biliary cystadenocarcinoma is a rare hepatic cystic tumor. We report sonographic, CT, and MRI findings in an unusual case in an 87-year-old man. The diagnosis was aided by sonographically guided needle aspiration of the lesion, which revealed elevated levels of carcinoembryonic antigen and CA 19-9 in the cystic fluid.
