Abstract
Hepatic biliary cysts, also known as simple hepatic cysts, are lesions frequently encountered in clinical practice. They result from cystic dilataion of an aberrant bile duct or a biliary microharmartoma. In the vast majority of cases. They are asymptomatic and incidentally discovered. When present, symptoms are usually related to large cystic size or occurrence of complications. Surgical management is indicated in complicated or hyperalgesic forms. Laparoscopic deroofing is considered the Gold standard.
