Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Biliary cystadenomas constitute less than 5% of cystic lesions of the liver.[1]
The majority of patients are middle-aged women with an average age of 45 at time of diagnosis.[2]
Cystadenomas occur predominantly in middle-aged women.
Biliary cystadenoma presents as an intrahepatic lesion in 90% of cases, while in the remaining cases it involves the extrahepatic biliary tree.[3]
The majority of these tumors occurs in women (80–85%), and this suggested a role for hormonal influence. The peak frequency has been reported between the fourth and the sixth decades. However, in a few cases, cystadenomas have been observed in the second decade of life. The peak frequency has been reported between the fourth and the sixth decades.[[3]
