Cyst diameter ranged from 45 mm to 170 mm, and their capacity from 135 cub cm to 510 cub cm. Totally in 96 patients were found 136 mass lesions. In 80 (83,3%) patients was a single liver cyst, and in 16 (16,7%) patients - two or more cysts.

Comparison of immediate and late results depending on way of residual cavity elimination showed significant efficacy of drainaging cavity by active suction drainage, which has reduced the duration of hospital stay and reduce postoperative complications.
