The median age was 13 years. On CT images, all tumors were seen as oval ( n\u2009=\u200914) or irregular ( n\u2009=\u20096), well-defined ( n\u2009=\u200916) or ill-defined ( n\u2009=\u20094) masses with a mean size of 9.7\u2009cm. The lesions were solid cystic ( n\u2009=\u200910), entirely solid ( n\u2009=\u20096), or predominantly cystic ( n\u2009=\u20094). Intratumoral hemorrhage, calcification, and fatty tissue were seen in nine, three, and two tumors, respectively. Discontinuity of the tumor wall was seen in eight tumors. After contrast media administration, most tumors showed heterogeneous moderate to marked enhancement ( n\u2009=\u20097) or heterogeneous marked enhancement ( n\u2009=\u20099). Enlarged intratumoral vessels were seen in 17 tumors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>YST usually appears as a large solid-cystic mass with intratumoral hemorrhage, capsular tear, marked heterogeneous enhancement, and enlarged intratumoral vessels on CT images.
