MRI and CT scans of the abdomen demonstrated 8 x 7.4 x 6 cm homogenous, nonseptated cystic mass posterosuperior to pancreatic tail (Figure 1).
Inner surface of specimen was smooth and white-pink in color with a 1.5 x 1.2 cm rough area.

The inner surface was smooth and white-pink in color with 1.5 x 1.2 cm rough area (Figure 2).
Photomicrograph: cyst wall was composed of mucosa, submucosa, and muscularis propria. The mucosa was predominantly a gastric body type with patchy intervening areas of simple columnar epithelium containing apical mucus and cilia seen in embryonic intestinal epithelium.
