  ABSTRACT: Caroli disease is a rare affection. It’s commonly associated to polycystic kidneys. We report a case of a nine-year-old girl. She was hospitalized at the pediatric unit of the Cocody Teaching Hospital for an intermittent fever. During the clinical examination, we found a likely cirrhotic hepatomegaly associated to an edematous-ascitic syndrome. Biological exams showed an infectious syndrome with a hyperleukocytosis at 13.000 per mm3, a hyperneutrophilia at 9.600 per mm3. Serological viral markers of B, C and D hepatitis were negative. We saw an intra-hepatic cystic picture at the liver CT-scan with a vascular lesion at his center called a “dot sign”. The diagnosis of Caroli disease could be evocated.
