A case of biliary cystadenocarcinoma arising in the liver with a congenital retention of indocyanine green.

Year: 1992

Type: article

Abstract: A case of biliary cystadenocarcinoma that occurred in a 45-year-old woman is reported. Ultrasonography and computed tomography clearly revealed papillary projections in the cyst of the liver. Percutaneous transhepatic cystography showed connection between the cyst and the common bile duct. The tumor was surgically resected and proved to be a mucinous papillary adenocarcinoma arising from a biliary cystadenoma. The patient is doing well 4 years after surgery. Interestingly, this is the first reported case of a biliary cystadenocarcinoma in the liver with markedly diminished excretion of indocyanine green.
