Pancreatic cysts are rare lesions in newborns. Prenatal diagnosis of true congenital pancreatic cyst is rare and many times cystic lesion on prenatal scans confused with mesenteric cyst, ovarian cyst, and left renal cyst. Here we report a newborn presented with antenatally detected upper abdominal cystic lesion. The cystic mass was located in the left upper side of the abdomen, and total cystectomy was performed without any intra or post-operative complication. Histopathological examination demonstrated presence of pancreatic tissues in the wall of cyst with foci of inflammation and cystically dilated ducts, lined by flattened epithelium. Features suggestive of congenital true pancreatic cyst with pancreatic fluid as its predominant content.
