ABSTRACT
Introduction: Multiple biliary hamartomatosis or von Meyenburg complex disease
was described by this author in 1955. Its origin is dysembryogenic with a benign
and asymptomatic evolutionary course, with normal liver function tests. Imaging
studies can confirm the diagnosis, but likewise, when it is a multinodular liver,
chronic liver disease can be diagnosed without specifying its etiology, which is why it is essential a histological diagnosis with a directed overlaparoscopic liver
biopsy. No specific treatment is needed and its follow-up is semi-annual or annual
ultrasound.
Objective: To present the value of laparoscopically directed liver biopsy for
multiple biliary hamartomatosis lesions.
Case report: A 53-year-old patient with a history of being a social drinker with a
weekly frequency is reported. He was admitted for fever associated with urinary
sepsis, in which a fortuitous ultrasound finding of a multinodular liver appeared,
without requiring an etiological diagnosis by other imaging studies. This led to a
laparoscopy with a liver biopsy aimed at the observed lesions. The histological
diagnosis of this entity is confirmed.
Conclusions: The importance and validity of the diagnostic value of laparoscopy,
as well as directed liver biopsy to achieve a certain histological diagnosis in this
entity, was demonstrated.
