Caroli’s syndrome is an uncommon disease, and it is characterized by the presence
of cystic dilation of the intrahepatic biliary tree, and of congenital fibrosis. It may act as
a premalignant condition, and in some cases it may develop into cholangiocarcinoma.
We report a case of Caroli’s syndrome that was diagnosed in a 37 year old male, and
wich was diagnosed along with the development of peritoneal carcinomatosis of
unknown origin. The relevant literature is reviewed as well.
