Pericardial cyst is a rare benign pathology of the pericardium.
General
- Rare - 1 in 100,000.[1][2]
- Approximately 8% of mediastinal masses.[2]
- Generally believed to be congenital; however, documented development on imaging reported.[3]
Gross
- Typical location: right cardiophrenic angle.[1]
Microscopic
Features:
- Mesothelial cyst - simple epithelium without cilia.
DDx:
- Bronchogenic cyst - ciliated epithelium.
Sign out
Mediastinal Lesion, Surgical Excision: - Benign cyst with a fibrotic wall lined by a simple epithelium, compatible with clinical impression of pericardial cyst. - NEGATIVE for malignancy.
