Abstract
We report a-55-year-old woman with spontaneous regression of simple liver cyst. The size of the cyst gradually became reduced without any treatment, and a reduction in diameter from 77 mm to 10 mm was observed after 8 years of follow-up. Spontaneous regression of congenital cysts of the liver in an adult seems to be very rare, and its mechanism is discussed.Entities:
