Abstract
Biliary adenofibroma is a rare benign liver tumor with potential for malignant transition. It has a bile duct origin characterized by a complex tubulocystic biliary epithelium with fibrous stroma. MRI features may suggest this uncommon entity, and histological findings can be diagnostic. We report a case of biliary adenofibroma with transformation to an intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

The carcinomatous component of the tumor showed a complex architecture with crowded back-to-back anastomosing and cribriform-like tubules
Summary
Biliary adenofibroma is an extremely rare hepatic tumor. It has similar histological components as von Meyenburg complexes and is classified as a benign tumor. Biliary adenofibromas are larger and have the potential for malignant transformation [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]. We report a case of biliary adenofibroma with malignant transformation
