Abstract

Ciliated hepatic foregut cysts (CHFCs) are rare, benign cystic lesions of embryologic origin, most often discovered incidentally. We report the case of a 35-year-old woman in whom a hepatic cyst was identified on imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enabled detailed characterization of the lesion, suggesting a CHFC. We discuss the radiologic features of this rare entity.
