Diagnostic dilemma of cystic biliary atresia: A series of two cases and brief review of the diagnostic modalities

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Cystic biliary atresia (CBA) is a rare variant of biliary atresia that closely resembles choledochal cyst (CC), complicating diagnosis and potentially delaying critical surgical intervention. We report two cases of CBA that were difficult to diagnose.

MR Cholangiopancreatography

Juntendo Medical Journal, 2000
MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a new technique allowing noninvasive investigation of the bile ducts and pancreatic duct. Due to the extremely intense signal of water on T2-weighting, MR sequences can be obtained only demonstrating liquids. The bile and pancreatic ducts can therefore be studied spontaneously even in the case of major cholestasis.

Successful endoscopic management of a pediatric intrapancreatic common bile duct stricture following blunt pancreatic trauma: A case report

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Pancreatic and biliary tract injuries from blunt abdominal trauma are rare in children. Common bile duct (CBD) strictures secondary to pancreatic trauma are even more uncommon, and management traditionally involves surgery. We report a 9‐year‐old boy who developed a severe distal intrapancreatic CBD stricture after blunt pancreatic trauma ...
