摘　　要：BACKGROUND Von Meyenburg complex(VMC)(i.e.,biliary hamartoma)is a rare congenital disorder characterized by multiple dilated cystic bile ducts,without clear trends in sex or age predominance.Due to the low number of published cases and the lack of recognized guidelines,the management of such patients remains a clinical challenge.CASE SUMMARY We present a case of symptomatic VMC that was diagnosed after imaging and histopathological examinations.Considering the patient’s condition,a conservative treatment strategy was chosen.Instrumental,laboratory,and clinical follow-up demonstrated the stable condition of the patient receiving conservative treatment.CONCLUSION VMC is a potentially non-life threatening condition,but its recognition is crucial for the management of patients.
