Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Hepatobiliary Medicine
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Right-sided hemihypertrophy is a congenital condition characterized by asymmetric body growth.
  • Abdominal masses in infants can present diagnostic challenges, requiring thorough investigation.

Observation:

  • An 8-month-old female infant presented with right-sided hemihypertrophy and a palpable abdominal mass.
  • Surgical exploration revealed a large, pedunculated mass originating from the liver's right lobe.

Findings:

  • The excised mass measured 17 cm x 12.5 cm x 12.5 cm.
  • Histopathological examination confirmed the mass to be a benign, single liver cyst.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering benign liver cysts in the differential diagnosis of pediatric abdominal masses.
