F W Santman, and L G Thijs, and E A Van Der Veen, and G Den Otter, and P Blok

A case of a solitary nonparasitic liver cyst, presenting with intermittent jaundice, is described in a 61-year-old female. Twice during the condition's 19-month course deep jaundice developed, spontaneously subsiding to a state of mild icterus. Diagnosis was suggested by ultrasonography and scintigraphy, whereas retrograde cholangiography and arteriography did not contribute. At laparotomy a single large benign multilocular cyst was partially removed.
