[Hepatobiliary cystoadenomas].
Cystoadenomas of the liver are rare cystic tumors that have seldom been reported. Accurate preoperative diagnosis is difficult because they are usually mistaken for more frequent lesions. Due to their malignant potential, complete surgical removal of the lesion is required. Correct diagnosis is guided by clinical history, radiological imaging, and laboratory parameters. We report two of these rare cases and discuss the spectrum of presentation, pathological features and treatment of these tumors.
