A Case Report of Cholangiocarcinoma Arising from a Biliary Adenofibroma: Radiologic Findings and Review of Literature

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Biliary adenofibromas are rare biliary epithelial tumors that are classified as benign. Nevertheless, some cases have been reported to show malignant transformations. The radiologic findings of biliary adenofibromas and their malignant transformation are not well-established because of their rarity. We present a case of a cholangiocarcinoma arising from a biliary adenofibroma assessed using ultrasonography, CT, and MRI. The differential diagnoses include other hepatic tumors.
