A member asked:

I had a unroofing of a hepatic cyst and now the cyst is back what is the treatment for this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear terminology: I do not know what you mean from 'unroofing'. Was it some sort of surgery? Liver cysts are mostly benign, so we do not need to do anything to them unless the cyst is very large in size. Please provide more details so w e can guide you further.
