✦ Synopsis


Abstract

We describe the 2‐dimensional and 3‐dimensional multiplanar sonographic diagnosis and characterization of isolated hepatic cysts in 2 fetuses. Two‐dimensional imaging of a fetus at 36 weeks' gestation revealed 2 right upper quadrant cystic masses anterior to the gallbladder, demonstrating no peristalsis or blood flow. Postnatal sonographic examination confirmed 2 simple hepatic cysts. Two‐ and three‐dimensional sonograms suggested 2 hepatic cysts in a 23‐week‐old fetus that resolved by 33 weeks' gestation. In reporting 2 unusual cases of prenatally diagnosed fetal hepatic cysts, we also demonstrate the diagnostic use of 3‐dimensional multiplanar imaging. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
