Popis: |
We encountered a patient with a ciliated hepatic foregut cyst (CHFC), which is an uncommon cystic lesion of the liver and hard to distinguish from malignant tumor in imaging features. Cases of CHFC are very rare, five cases were reported in the 19th century and 53 cases in the 20th century. The histogenesis of CHFC is still unclear, but most authors consider that it could arise from the embryonic foregut. A few cases of CHFC mimicking neoplasm were reported. When the diagnosis of CHFC was obtained by fine needle aspiration, close follow-up is necessary in order to find early malignant change. |
