Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2023 Choledochal cysts are rare cystic dilations of the biliary tree that typically involve the extrahepatic bile duct and more infrequently, the intrahepatic bile ducts. Todani's classification of choledochal cysts is the most referenced system in which five

Removal of a Large, Intractable Common Bile Duct Stone by Direct Peroral Cholangioscopy
The Korean Journal of Gastroenterology, 2020 ERCP is the standard treatment for common bile duct stones. On the other hand, 10-15% of cases involve intractable common bile duct stones, which cannot be treated by conventional biliary sphincterotomy with a stone retrieval method.

Tuberculosis of the Common Bile Duct [PDF]
HPB Surgery, 1990 The intrahepatic biliary tree can occasionally be infected by Mycobacteriurn tuberculosis, but tuberculosis of the common bile duct has not previously been reported. A 38‐year‐old man with obstructive jaundice, who was originally thought to have cholangiocarcinoma associated with opisthorchiasis (a common combination in Thailand), was finally proved to

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Endoscopic Ultrasound versus Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography in Patients with Suspected Common Bile Duct Stones. [PDF]
, 2015 Patients with suspected common bile duct (CBD) stones are often diagnosed using endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), an invasive procedure with risk of significant complications.

Conduction of activity between muscles in the terminal region of the common bile duct and in the neighboring duodenum [PDF]
, 1976 The relationship between muscle activity at the terminal region of the common bile duct and the duodenal muscle was examined in rabbits. The rhythmic muscle activity in the terminal region was synchronous with duodenal muscle activity.

Altered density of glomerular binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor in bile duct-ligated rats with ascites [PDF]
, 1991 The renal response to atrial natriuretic factor is blunted in cirrhosis with ascites. This might be due to alterations of renal receptors for atrial natriuretic factor.

Selection criteria for preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography before laparoscopic cholecystectomy and endoscopic treatment of bile duct stones. Results of a retrospective; single center study between 1996-2002 [PDF]
, 2004 AIM: The optimal treatment for bile duct stones (in terms of cost, complications and accuracy) is unclear. The aim of our study was to determine the predictive factors for preoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
