Abstract

Fetal hepatic cyst is a rare lesion. The authors present a case of fetal hepatic cyst detected at 20 weeks of gestation during the target scan. Sonography revealed an anechoic lesion in the right upper quadrant of the fetal abdomen lacking vascularity on color Doppler. The lesion remained stable during the course of pregnancy. A baby girl was delivered at 38 weeks of gestation. Postnatal evaluation of the child confirmed the diagnosis of a primary hepatic cyst.
