Laparoscopic deroofing of a recurrent giant simple hepatic cyst in a geriatric female: Case report.
Journal of Minimal Access Surgery 2024 January 10
Liver cysts often have no symptoms, are benign and are usually encountered during routine abdominal imaging for other conditions. Giant cysts have a higher risk of complications. Recurrence is common, and most research papers support laparoscopic deroofing as the initial management modality even in the recurrent cases as it avoids the morbidity of laparotomy and gives better short- and long-term post-operative outcomes. Here, we present a case of a 68-year-old female who presented to the outpatient department with complaints of right-sided dull-aching abdominal pain, heaviness, early satiety and significant weight loss for the past 2 months. A laparoscopic drainage and deroofing were done, and histopathological examination of the cystic wall was consistent with benign pathology. The patient has been doing well for the past year.
