To help assess the significance of liver cysts we have prospectively documented their prevalence and characteristics within a general population being referred for ultrasound. Simple hepatic cysts occur in 2.5% of the population, becoming increasingly common with age. They show a preference for women, the right lobe of the liver and are occasionally multiple. The differential diagnosis is discussed.
为了帮助评估肝囊肿的重要性，我们前瞻性地记录了在接受超声检查的普通人群中肝囊肿的患病率和特征。单纯性肝囊肿在2.5%的人群中出现，且随着年龄增长越来越常见。它们更常见于女性、肝脏右叶，偶尔也会是多发性的。文中讨论了鉴别诊断。
