[Hepatic cystadenocarcinoma].
The biliary cystadenocarcinoma is a rare liver neoplasm with a preoperative difficult diagnosis to make, but increased by ultrasonography. Is reported the case of a caucasian male 78 years old, operated 11 years previously for partial resection of a benign liver cyst. Recurrent cholangitis and obstructive jaundice required a reoperation for right hepatectomy. Microscopic examination showed a malignant transformation in cystadenocarcinoma.
