Abstract:
The spleen can be involved in a variety of cystic lesions ranging from cystic neoplasms and parasitic cysts to "true" and "false" cysts. Epidermoid splenic cyst is a rare true cyst that is developmental in origin. We present two young patients with such a cyst and illustrate their features on ultrasound, CT, and MRI with pathologic correlation.
