We report a case of biliary cystadenoma in a 40 years female who presented with an epigastric abdominal mass. The preoperative diagnosis was made by means of US, CT and MRI. Lack of calcifications and the serological tests ruled out hydatid disease. Total excision by shelling out the lesion from the liver parenchyma was performed. We recommend complete surgical removal as the treatment of choice due to the malignant potential and the high recurrence rate after partial resections.
We present two patients with emphysematous cholecystitis treated successfully by means of percutaneous cholecystostomy. We emphasize the high mortality rate of the disease, and the good response achieved with the percutaneous technique, as well as the low complication rate of the procedure.
