Abstract
Solitary nonparasitic cyst of the liver (SNPCL) is rare in children. Although there are several hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis, the true origin of SNPCL remains unknown. The authors present an infant with a huge SNPCL in whom the epithelial markers, CA19-9, DU-PAN-2, and SPan-1, were elevated in the serum and cystic fluid. The presence of CA19-9 and DU-PAN-2 was shown by immunohistochemistry in the cystic epithelia. These indicate that the classical idea of biliary origin of SNPCL is supported.
