Choledococele as a cause of recurrent abdominal pain and biliary sepsis.
Revista Española de Enfermedades Digestivas 2023 November 7
We report the case of a 91-year-old female with acute cholangitis and long-standing symptoms of recurrent colic- related abdominal pain after cholecystectomy. She was diagnosed by abdominal CT of saccular dilation of the intramural bile duct in the duodenum suggesting choledococele. ERCP was performed in which the presumptive diagnosis was confirmed, and choledochotomy and choledochoplasty were done with excellent subsequent progress. Choledococele is the least common type of biliary cyst. It consists of a cystic dilation of the intramural portion of the common bile duct that protrudes into the duodenal lumen and causes symptoms of recurrent abdominal pain and biliary events. ERCP is a key test in both diagnosis and treatment except when they cannot be approached by this technique or malignancy is suspected.
