Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Cardiology
  • Developmental Biology

Background:

  • Intrapericardial cysts are rare congenital anomalies.
  • Diagnosis in infancy presents unique challenges.
  • Enterogenous cysts are a specific subtype.

Observation:

  • A case of an infant with an intrapericardial enterogenous cyst is presented.
  • Clinical presentation and diagnostic imaging findings are detailed.
  • The cyst's location within the pericardium is confirmed.

Findings:

  • The infant was successfully diagnosed with an intrapericardial enterogenous cyst.
  • Differential diagnoses for similar cystic lesions in the pericardial space were considered.
  • Histopathological confirmation of the enterogenous origin is discussed.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering rare congenital anomalies in neonatal cardiac imaging.
  • Understanding the differential diagnosis aids in appropriate management of infant intrapericardial cysts.
  • Further research into the embryological origins of these cysts may improve early detection.
