Table 2. Results of Subgroup Analysis on Benign Cysts according to Presence of Pseudoenhancement.

CT Findings Pseudoenhancement (+)* (42%, n = 19) Pseudoenhancement (-) (58%, n = 26) P
Pre-contrast CT attenuation (HU) 22.1 ± 18.5 38.2 ± 15.0 0.003
Post-contrast CT attenuation (HU) 54.6 ± 25.4 36.4 ± 15.9 0.005
Absolute enhancement (HU) 32.5 ± 18.0 -1.7 ± 8.7 < 0.001
Long-axis diameter (cm) 2.0 ± 0.8 2.1 ± 0.8 0.724
Presence of protrusion (%) 16 (n = 3) 4 (n = 1) 0.295

*Pseudoenhancement was considered as positive for lesions with absolute enhancement ≥ 10 HU. Lt. = left, Rt. = right
