Core Tip	The management of patients with symptomatic polycystic liver disease is challenging. Among several treatments options, the most common interventions are: percutaneous cyst aspiration, fenestration, hepatic resection and liver transplantation. There is no consensus on the best treatment options and the optimal timing for interventions in symptomatic patients. In vision of these limitations, we reviewed the most recent literature and present a comprehensive article on this topic.
