ABSTRACT
A ciliated hepatic foregut cyst (CHFC) is a rare cystic lesion consisting of a ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium, subepithelial connective tissue, a smooth muscle layer, and an outer fibrous capsule. A CHFC is usually unilocular and occurs at a higher frequency in males. A predilection exists at the medial segment located at the left lobe of the liver. We report the first case of a ciliated hepatic foregut cyst mimicking hepatic metastasis on a CT scan of a patient concurrently afflicted with gastric cancer.
