A pericardial cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops near the heart. Most are noncancerous and cause no symptoms, often found unexpectedly on imaging. An MRI may show a fluid-filled structure near the heart as an incidental finding. Finding a pericardial cyst provides a baseline for monitoring any changes in size over time.
