Obstructive jaundice from benign liver cysts is rare. A case of polycystic liver and kidney disease successfully treated jaundice with hepatic lobectomy and cyst fenestration, recommending urgent cyst resection for severe cases.

Area of Science:

  • Hepatology
  • Nephrology
  • Surgical Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Benign, non-parasitic hepatic cysts causing obstructive jaundice are exceptionally rare, with only 19 cases previously documented.
  • Polycystic liver and kidney disease presents a complex clinical challenge, potentially leading to significant intra-abdominal complications.

Observation:

  • A patient with polycystic liver and kidney disease developed obstructive jaundice due to large hepatic cysts.
  • The cysts' significant occupancy and proximity to the porta hepatis were identified as the primary causes of biliary obstruction.

Findings:

  • A successful surgical intervention involving hepatic lobectomy and fenestration of multiple cysts relieved the obstructive jaundice.
  • This case highlights the potential for hepatic cysts in polycystic disease to cause severe biliary compromise.

Implications:

  • Urgent surgical resection of major hepatic cysts is recommended for patients with rapidly progressing jaundice secondary to polycystic liver disease.
  • This approach may prevent irreversible liver damage and improve patient outcomes in rare cases of obstructive jaundice from hepatic cysts.
