Intrahepatic bile duct adenoma mimicking hepatic metastasis: case report and review of the literature.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a case of bile duct adenoma that mimicked hepatic metastasis from gastric cancer. The adenoma exhibited prolonged enhancement on dynamic computed tomography, hyperintensity on diffusion-weighted imaging, and diminished uptake of superparamagnetic iron oxide and gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid on magnetic resonance imaging, resembling those of adenocarcinomas. Knowledge of the imaging findings of this rare entity may aid correct diagnosis.

Intrahepatic clear cell bile duct adenoma is extremely rare, with only 3 previous cases reported in the literature. The cause of cytoplasmic clearing in clear cell bile duct adenoma has not been previously investigated. Distinguishing clear cell bile duct adenoma from other clear cell tumors, particularly clear cell cholangiocarcinoma, can be challenging. Previous studies have shown loss of CD1...

BACKGROUND Ectopic intrahepatic gallbladder is a rare phenomenon. Gallbladder duplication is an even rarer phenomenon. Pathological processes are more common in congenital anomalies of the gall bladder than normal gallbladders due to poor drainage. CASE REPORT We present a case of duplex gallbladder with one component intrahepatic and the other extra-hepatic, the duo draining via a common cys...
متن کاملImaging Findings of Intrahepatic Bile Duct Adenoma (Peribiliary Gland Hamartoma): a Case Report and Literature Review
Intrahepatic bile duct adenoma is a rare benign epithelial hepatic tumor derived from bile duct cells. We report the imaging findings of a patient with bile duct adenoma, which appeared as a small heterogeneously enhancing mass with focal small cystic change on CT and MRI. Follow-up images at seven months showed a slight increase in tumor size, which could be partly explained by intratumoral he...
متن کاملIntrahepatic bile duct adenoma (peribiliary gland hamartoma): a case report and review of literature.
Bile duct adenoma (BDA) is a comparatively rare disease and there are relatively few reported cases in the English-language literature. Herein, we present a 63-year-old woman, who was incidentally found to have a liver-occupying lesion during a routine medical examination. Ultrasonography suggested "quick wash-in and wash-out" sign with an obvious nodular enhancement in the peripheral of the ri...

We report a case of a 48-year-old female patient, who presented with abdominal pain, jaundice, and lack of appetite. Ultrasound showed intrahepatic biliary dilatation with retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Further magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography detected Klatskin tumor. Computed tomography (CT) confirmed the Klatskin tumor with liver metastases and retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Bi...
