PANCREATICOBILIARY MALJUNCTIONDILATATIONCHILDRENIn adults, less than 10-mm bile duct has idiomatically been recognized as "non-dilated bile duct" though there was no obvious evidence. The aim of this study was to prospectively examine the maximum inner diameter of extrahepatic bile duct (MDEBD) ...
Here, we report a case of NET of the extrahepatic bile duct in a 64-year-old male patient presenting with painless jaundice, direct hyperbilirubinemia, and mildly elevated transaminases. Diagnostic workup with an ultrasound revealed dilation of the intrahepatic biliary ducts, without cholelithiasis or...

Gallstones might induce biliary inflammation, and cholecystect- omy is typically followed by dilation of the bile ducts (Chung et al, 1990), which might also cause inflammation and thereby possibly increase the risk of cholangiocarcinoma. Previous studies addres- sing gallstones or cholecystectomy in...
Abdominal ultrasound revealed peritoneal effusion, multifocal mixed echogenic hepatic and splenic foci, small intestinal thickening, cholelithiasis, choledocholithiasis, and common bile duct and pancreatic duct dilation with evidence of obstruction. Peritoneal effusion cytology confirmed septic perit...
Ultrasonographically, there was a foreign body at the level of the duodenal papilla and dilation of the common bile duct and cystic duct; a diagnosis of extrahepatic biliary tract obstruction secondary to a duodenal foreign body was made. Sonographic findings were confirmed at surgery and a ...
duct and a vine-like expansion of the intrahepatic bile duct was observed.Furthermore,a biliary biopsy was performed under fluoroscopy to determine the nature and origin of the lesion.The pathological diagnosis of the biopsy was SRCC.Finally,a diagnosis of primary SRCC of extrahepatic bile duct ...
