Liver Atrophy Associated With Monolobar Caroli's Disease
نویسندگان
چکیده
The association of the atrophy-hypertrophy complex in monolobar Caroli's disease (Type I) is reported in a 30 year old male who presented with recurrent cholangitis. Ultrasound and CT scan showed localised, right sided, saccular biliary dilatation in a normal sized liver. Severe right lobar atrophy was detected at operation and the resected right lobe weighed only 140 gms. Distortion of the hilar vascular anatomy and posterior displacement of the right hepatic duct orifice were problems encountered at surgery.

It is a rare congenital condition, which appears to be autosomal recessively inherited in most cases. There are two forms of disease, one associated with congenital hepatic fibrosis and a simple form occurring alone. Recent reports suggest that the simple form may be as common as that with conge...

This paper describes a case of Caroli's disease in a female patient aged 32, who complained of nonspecific abdominal pain without cholesthasis or cholangitis. Liver resonance shows segment saccular dilations closely connected to intrahepatic biliary ducts, that differ from the Caroli's syndrome, which is more common and consists of multiple intrahepatic cystic dilatations, associated to congeni...

Caroli's disease belongs to a group of hepatic fibropolycystic diseases and is a hepatic manifestation of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). It is a congenital disorder characterized by segmental saccular dilatations of the large intrahepatic bile duct and is frequently associated with congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF). The most viable theory explaining its pathogenesis sugg...
متن کاملCaroli's disease misdiagnosed as intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct
Caroli's disease is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder caused by malformation of the ductal plate during embryonic development. Although it is present at birth, Caroli's disease is typically not diagnosed until between the second and fourth decades of life, as it was in the present patient. Here we report a rare case of Caroli's disease limited to one liver segment, which was initially misdiag...
