A 20-year-old woman underwent alcohol sclerotherapy for a symptomatic liver cyst, initially diagnosed as simple liver cyst. Five months later, she presented with expulsion of the cyst from the puncture site. The cyst was proved to be due to hydatid disease. Spontaneous expulsion is a rare complication of sclerotherapy.

Hilar biliary cystadenocarcinoma: an uncommon hepatic neoplasm.

Biliary cystadenocarcinoma (BCAC) is a rare cystic tumour of the liver; with its benign counterpart, it accounts for <5% of non-parasitic hepatic cysts. Preoperative diagnosis of BCAC is difficult; complete surgical excision is recommended to prevent recurrence or metastasis. We present the case of a 67-year-female with centrally located BCAC involving the right hepatic duct and distorting the hepatic hilum. This report highlights the difficulties in diagnosis, surgical resection, subsequent biliary reconstruction and its outcome.
