Ciliated hepatic foregut cyst, about a case and review of imaging features
Journal Title: Archives of Clinical Gastroenterology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Ciliated hepatic foregut cyst is a rare benign liver lesion with about a hundred cases described in the literature [1,2]. It is the hepatic equivalent of the bronchogenic cyst, of which it shares the same histological characters. One of these key features in imaging is its location in the anterior sub-capsular region of the IV segment of the liver [1]. The treatment is surgical because of the risk of degeneration [1,3]. We report a case of ciliated cyst examined in ultrasound, CT and MRI.
