Abstract

Choledochal cyst is a dilatation of a component of the bi-liary tree and it may include both intra and extrahepatic sites.They are classified into five types, all of which are relativelyrare. Previously, choledochal cysts were treated with biliary-enteric bypass procedures. The current recommendation is toattempt their complete excision to minimize the known riskof fecoming malignant and the development of recurrent cho-langitis or pancreatitis that may occur in these patients.

We present here the case of a 21 year old woman with ab-dominal pain and jaundice due to a type 1 choledochal cyst.The cyst was removed and patient did fine.
