Abstract
- Extrahepatic duplication of the common bile duct (CBD) is an extremely rare anatomic variation seen in the biliary tract. It represents failure of regression of the primitive duplicated biliary ductal system, resulting in five different subtypes of the duplicated CBD as described by Choi et al. To date, only few such cases have been reported in the literature. Associated variation in branching of intrahepatic bile ducts presenting as combined dual ductal anomaly is even rarer phenomena to be seen. We report a case of a 67-year-old man with chronic kidney disease and obstructive jaundice resulting from choledocholithiasis. Evaluation revealed type IIIa branching of intrahepatic bile ducts with type Va duplication of the CBD.<br /> (© 2021 Indian National Association for Study of the Liver. Published by Elsevier B.V.
