Abstract

Choledochal cysts are uncommon developmental anomalies involving intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary ducts, and their immediate complete excision is recommended to prevent chronic inflammatory and malignant changes. A diagnosis of a congenital type 1C choledochal cyst was made in an 8-year-old female patient admitted to the emergency unit with complaints of severe upper abdominal pain and vomiting. Under laparotomy, resection of the whole segment of choledochal cyst and gallbladder, assisted Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy was performed. The laparotomy approach involving fine dissection and resection of choledochal cysts with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy remains superior to the endoscopic approach.
