[Treatment of hepatic polycystosis by intracystic injection of alcohol].
Two patients with symptomatic polycystic liver disease were treated with aspiration and injection of alcohol into the cyst cavities. Only the cysts larger than three to five centimeters were treated. No complications were encountered. Transient pain was observed in one case. There was no recurrence of the treated cysts on follow-up examinations at five to 74 months. These results suggest that aspiration and injection of alcohol is an effective treatment for symptomatic polycystic liver disease.
