von Meyenburg's complex in a patient with primary malignancy: role of MRI.

von Meyenburg's complexes are benign liver malformations histologically constituting cystic dilatations of the bile ducts, surrounded by abundant fibrous stroma. Appearance of these lesions on MRI is characteristic and a fine needle aspiration or biopsy can be avoided and judicious management planned. We report a case of esophageal carcinoma who had suspicious lesions in the liver on CT scan, which after MRI were confirmed as biliary hamartomas.
