Hepatic cystadenocarcinoma is a rare malignant cystic tumor of the liver, characterized by diagnostic and therapeutic challenges and an unpredictable prognosis. This clinical entity deserves attention due to its rarity and the nonspecific nature of its clinical presentation. Imaging has helped overcome this issue in approximately 80% of cases. Through the case we report and in light of the available literature, we aimed, on one hand, to highlight the diagnostic difficulties of hepatic cystadenocarcinoma due to its clinical latency in most cases reported in the literature and its lack of specificity, especially considering that cystic liver lesions are predominantly hydatid cysts. On the other hand, we emphasize the importance of radical surgical treatment to prevent the risk of distant metastases and recurrence.
