Giant congenital solitary cyst of the liver: report of a case.
Giant solitary nonparasitic cysts of the liver are rarely encountered in children, and establishing a preoperative diagnosis is usually difficult, especially when the cyst occupies the entire abdomen. We report herein the case of an 8-year-old girl found to have a giant congenital solitary cyst of the liver masquerading as an ovarian cyst.
