Ciliated Hepatic Foregut Cyst: A Rare Cystic Liver Lesion

Authors: J. M. Shaw, J. E. J. Krige, S. J. Beningfield, M. L. Locketz

Abstract

Ciliated hepatic foregut cysts are an unusual congenital cause of cystic liver lesions. Although most are benign, 4.4% of reported cases have been shown to harbor squamous cell carcinoma. Diagnostic uncertainty or misdiagnosis frequently results in surgical exploration. We present a case of a ciliated hepatic foregut cyst and review this uncommon condition.
