Starry Sky” Appearance from Multiple Biliary Hamartomas

Starry Sky” Appearance from Multiple Biliary Hamartomas

A 45-year-old woman was referred to the outpatient clinic after multiple hepatic lesions were incidentally noted on imaging. She had no related symptoms, and the physical examination was normal. Laboratory tests showed no liver dysfunction, with normal levels of alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and bilirubin and a normal international normalized ratio. Enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen showed multiple small, hypodense, nonenhancing nodules throughout the liver (Panel A). Magnetic resonance imaging with cholangiopancreatography revealed multiple small, T2-weighted, hyperintense cystic nodules in the liver, with no biliary duct communication, creating a “starry sky” appearance (Panel B). These findings were consistent with biliary hamartomas, benign malformations of the intrahepatic biliary ducts. No specific treatment was initiated, and at a follow-up visit 2 years after presentation, the imaging findings were unchanged.

I was diagnosed as a Hepatitis B carrier in 2015, with early signs of liver fibrosis. At first, antiviral medications helped control the virus but over time, resistance developed, and the effectiveness faded. I began to lose hope. In 2021, I discovered NaturePath Herbal Clinic despite my skepticism, I decided to give their herbal treatment a try.To my surprise, after just six months, my blood tests came back negative for the virus.It was nothing short of life-changing.I never expected such incredible results from a natural treatment. But it not only cleared the virus it restored my hope, my health, and my peace of mind.If you or someone you know is battling Hepatitis B, I truly encourage you to explore the natural healing path offered by NaturePath Herbal Clinic. It gave me a second chance and it might do the same for you.www.naturepathherbalclinic.com info@naturepathherbalclinic.com
