Abstract

This paper describes a newborn infant in whom an intrahepatic biliary cyst was successfully demonstrated by antenatal ultrasound. Postnatally, percutaneous cyst aspiration and computed tomography enhanced with intravenous cholangiographic contrast proved extremely helpful in the selection of surgical procedure. The lesion was completely removed at 12 weeks of age without complications.
