Hepatic cysts have a prevalence of 2.5-7% and most of them are asymptomatic. However, large cysts may cause complaints; in such cases an appropriate treatment is necessary (open surgery, laparoscopic deroofing, removal of cystic fluid and injection of a sclerosing agent. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of a single session technique with polidocanol in the therapy of symptomatic non parasitic hepatic cysts. MATERIAL AND METHODS. The study included 13 patients with symptomatic liver cysts (range 4-10 cm). All patients underwent percutaneous aspiration of the liver cyst under ultrasound guidance followed by instillation of polidocanol (3%, 4-10 ml). The patients were followed up at 1, 3 and 12 months. The disappearance of the cyst or reduction in volume more than 90% was considered successful. If the fluid was accumulated at 1month the procedure was repeated. If after the second injection the fluid accumulation was more than 50% of the initial volume the case was considered a failure and a laparoscopic deroofing was performed.
