Biliary cystadenoma is a rare benign hepatobiliary cystic tumor, more common in middle-aged women. The clinical manifestation is variable. It can be asymptomatic or symptomatic presenting with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or a palpable mass. We report a case of a 36-year-old female patient, with a biliary cystadenoma mimicking a hydatid cyst (HC) complicated by local recurrence. The radiological diagnosis can be difficult and may present a problem of differential diagnosis with the HC and complicated liver cyst. Surgical management is based on complete resection given the high risk of recurrence and malignant degeneration.
Keywords: Cystadenoma, Liver, MRI
