Description
Mohsin Murshid and co-authors review, in a 2026 paper, a rare type of cyst-forming liver tumor that can turn into cancer. These growths have a distinct lining and support tissue that set them apart from other liver cysts. Scans often cannot tell them apart from harmless cysts or other bile duct growths.
Blood tests, cyst fluid checks, and biopsies also fail to rule out cancer with confidence. For that reason, full surgical removal is advised for all suspected cases, whatever their size or symptoms. Removal with clear margins gives excellent long-term results, while drainage or partial opening leads to frequent return. Outlook is good unless invasive cancer is already present.
