Brief description/objective

First experiences are reported with percutaneous sclerosing therapy of cysts with polidocanol (aethoxysklerol 1%) using ultrasound for needle guidance. They cover two patients with symptomatic cysts of the liver and a patient with polyglobulinemia and an erythropoietin-producing renal cyst. These experiences are compared to previously reported ones.
