Ciliated foregut cysts are benign congenital lesions that are commonly found in the mediastinum but are rare in the retroperitoneum. So far only very few cases of ciliated foregut cyst found in the pancreas have been reported, and less with cytologic findings described. We report a case of ciliated foregut cyst in pancreas in an asymptomatic patient diagnosed on fine needle aspiration cytology. We also discuss the cytology features that would help with the diagnosis, and the differential diagnosis that should be considered.
Keywords: ciliated foregut cyst; cystic lesion; fine needle aspiration; pancreas.
