Abstract
Hepatic foregut cysts are uncommon lesions of the liver. In this repor t we prospectively examined two patients by means of computed tomograp hy (CT), ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. Ciliated hepatic foregut cysts were subsequently demonstrated in both patients following CT-guided biopsy. Magnetic resonance imaging was f ound to be useful in differentiating these cysts from other lesions.
