In a subset of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients, hepatic cysts dominate the clinical picture. These patients may develop polycystic liver disease, and enlargement of the liver leads to compression of adjacent abdominal and thoracic organs. The main risk factors for growth of liver cysts are female sex, exogenous oestrogen use, multiple pregnancies, and severity of renal disease. Treatment is only indicated in those with symptoms, and choice of treatment depends on total liver volume, size, and location of the liver cysts. Current radiological and surgical therapies include aspiration-sclerotherapy, fenestration, segmental hepatic resection, and liver transplantation. They all are palliative in nature and are partially effective and have non-negligible morbidity and mortality. Somatostatin analogues are still in development for polycystic liver disease.
