Conclusion:
As this study showed, it is rare to find huge MCTs significantly bigger than 10 cm for different reasons mentioned above. They could be benign or found suddenly during routine medical examinations. Symptoms should be examined quickly and carefully because not paying attention to them can cause cysts with enormous dimensions, leading to many complications such as malignancy and cause life- threatening conditions.
