Cystic liver lesions in an adult may occur for a variety of reasons, most of which are benign in nature. Infiltrating benign lesions in the liver parenchyma may pose a clinical challenge in diagnosis and management. In the case presented herein, a cystic lesion adjacent to the gall bladder and involving the liver parenchyma had to be differentiated from gall bladder carcinoma, which is quite common in India.
