    Author: Lerner ME, Roshkow JE, Smithline A, Ng C.
    Journal: Gastrointest Radiol; 1992; 17(1):46-8. PubMed ID: 1544558.
    Abstract:
    A 59-year-old woman with polycystic liver (PCLD) and kidney disease (PCKD) presented with jaundice, fever, and abdominal pain. A computered tomographic (CT) scan performed immediately after an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatogram (ERCP) clearly demonstrated a hepatic cyst obstructing the biliary system. The cyst was then aspirated under ultrasound guidance with complete relief of obstruction.
