Abstract

Pancreatic cysts can be true or pseudocysts. True pancreatic cysts in children are rare clinical entities. We present a 23-month-old boy with a cystic lesion in the distal body and tail of the pancreas which on histopathology was found to be a rare true congenital simple cyst of the pancreas.

Keywords: Amylase; intestinal duplication cyst; lipase; pseudocyst of the pancreas; true congenital pancreatic cyst.
