Abstract A 50-year-old woman was investigated for epigastric pain. Imaging revealed a multilocular cyst with multiple thin septae within segment IV of the liver, measuring up to 140 mm in diameter. There was associated bile duct dilatation. Given the patient’s symptoms, the size of the cyst and malignant potential, a hemi-hepatectomy was performed. Histopathology demonstrated a cyst lined by columnar mucinous epithelium with underlying ovarian-type stroma. Therefore, the diagnosis was mucinous cystic neoplasm of the liver (MCN-L). MCN-L is a rare disease, and the presence of bile duct dilatation is an even rarer finding. This article presents a case report and review of literature of this entity.

A 75-year-old female incidentally presented with an enhancing intraluminal gallbladder mass, main bile duct dilatation and anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction (APBJ) during the staging of gastric adenocarcinoma. Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of intracholecystic papillary-tubular neoplasm. Intracholecystic papillary-tubular neoplasms (ICPN) of the gallbladder are rare gallbladder neoplasms, defined as intramucosal, preinvasive, exophytic, mass forming lesions. An association between choledochal cysts and anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction with gallbladder neoplasms is well known, and this case potentially illustrates gallbladder carcinogenesis related to these biliary anomalies.

Abstract Background Mucinous cyst neoplasm of the liver (MCN-L) comprise less than 5% of all cystic liver lesions and is characterized by the presence of ovarian stroma and absence of bile duct communication. Case presentation Here, we discuss a 45-year-old woman who presented with symptomatic liver mass. Diagnostic workup detected a 4.2 × 3.6 cm septate cyst located in segments I, V, and VIII of the liver in communication with the right hepatic duct. An open right liver resection with total bile duct excision and hilar lymphadenectomy was performed. Pathology revealed a multiloculated cyst with lined mucinous epithelium and ovarian-like stroma, consistent with low-grade MCN-L. Conclusions This case shows that unusual location and bile duct communication can be present in MCN-L.

Classification And Treatment

Secondary intra- and extrahepatic bile duct dilatation is a very common condition that can be caused by several diseases. However, it has been rarely discussed in the specialized literature. Moreover, no distinct etiology can be determined in some cases, which hampers the diagnosis and treatment. Here, we discuss the etiological classification and treatment strategies of secondary intra- and extrahepatic bile duct dilatation based on an extensive literature review, as well as our experimental research and clinical experience. The etiology of secondary intra- and extrahepatic bile duct dilatation can be classified in different ways. From a clinicopathological perspective, it can be classified into obstruction-, lesion-, and compression-induced dilatation. Treatment varies depending on the cause. For example, endoscopic dilation or stenting is used for biliary strictures, laparoscopic choledochectomy for stone removal, and resection for cholangiocarcinoma.
