dsolve(diff(y(x),x)=(x-4)*y(x)^3/(x^3*(y(x)-2)),y(x), singsol=all)
 

\begin{align*} y \left (x \right ) &= -\frac {\left (x +\sqrt {8+\left (4 c_{1} +1\right ) x^{2}-4 x}\right ) x}{2 c_{1} x^{2}-2 x +4} \\ y \left (x \right ) &= \frac {x \left (-x +\sqrt {8+\left (4 c_{1} +1\right ) x^{2}-4 x}\right )}{2 c_{1} x^{2}-2 x +4} \\ \end{align*}
