Definition
• Pathological fluid filled sac bounded by a wall.
![Page 3: Cysts by Dr. Syed Alam Zeb](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061117/5466774baf795969458b4ebb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
TRUE CYST
• Sac is lined by cells of epithelial origin. Examples are thyroglossal cyst, Sebaceous cyst, Branchial cysts.

FALSE CYSTS
• They are walled-off fluid collections not lined by epithelium. Examples are: Dental or radicular cysts, encysted pleural effusions, pancreatic pseudocysts.

CLASSIFICATION OF CYSTS
• CONGENITAL: 1. Persistence of normal vestigial remnants like Thyroglossal, Branchial, urachal & hydatid of morgagni.
• 2. Ectopia of various tissues like dermoid, epidermoid & enterogenous.
• 3. Failure of connection of tubular elements like polycystic kidneys.
• 4.Hamartomas like cystic hygromas.

Classification cont:
• Acquired Cysts: 1. Retention like mucous cyst of mouth. 2. Implantation like Epidermoid. 3. Parasitic like Hydatid. 4. Hyperplasic like mammary dysplasia. 5. Degenerative like uterine leiomyoma 6. Traumatic e.g. Haematogenous. 7. Neoplastic e.g. Cyst adenoma, cystic teratoma.

CLINICAL FEATURES
• Depends on the type of cyst, site and size.
• Pain: due to increase in size, haemorrhage, infection, rupture or torsion.
• Pressure effect: Haemorrhage in Thyroglossal cyst causes dyspnoea. Pseudocyst of pancreas may compress the CBD, or stomach.

CLINICAL FEATURES
