Assessment of Treatment With Laparoscopic Fenestration or Aspiration Sclerotherapy for Large Symptomatic Hepatic Cysts

NCT05500157 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 70

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with large hepatic cysts (\> 5cm) may develop symptoms. These can be captured with the polycystic liver disease questionnaire (PLD-Q). Treatment of large hepatic cysts consists of aspiration sclerotherapy or laparoscopic fenestration.

The safety and efficacy of both procedures has been explored in two recent systematic reviews yet no evident conclusion regarding superiority of either procedure could be drawn.

The main objective of the ATLAS trial is to compare laparoscopic fenestration and aspiration sclerotherapy in patients with large symptomatic hepatic cysts on patient-reported outcomes.
