The paper deals with small preturbations of an infinite cylinder in three-dimensional Euclidian space. Minimal disc-type surfaces embedded in the cylinder and intersecting its boundary perpendicularly are found. The existence and localization of those minimal discs is a consequence of a non-degeneracy condition for the critical points of a functional related to the oscillations of the cylinder from the flat configuration.
