Proximal common bile duct, adenomyomaAbstract
Proximal common bile duct adenomyoma is a rare benign tumor. It is more common in female and elderly. It produces obstructive jaundice mimic to cholangiocarcinoma. It is usually evaluated by liver function test, tumor marker (CA19-9), Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatogphy (MRI-MRCP), and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with biopsy. Confirmatory diagnosis is almost impossible before surgery. Confirmation is only possible after surgery and histopathological examination. Recently we have encountered a 31 years old man who presented with obstructive jaundice. He was evaluated as usual and diagnosed as a case of hilar cholangiocarcinoma (Bismuth type I). Extrahepatic excision along with pericholedochal lymph node, lymph node around common hepatic artery and retro-duodenal lymph nodes were removed en-block and the operation was completed by Roux-en-Y reconstruction. Histopathological examination confirms the lesion as bile duct adenomyoma. The patient is symptom free without any recurrence at 3 years follow up after surgery. We are going to report the case as bile duct adenomyoma in a young male which is a very rare tumor for understanding its presentation, diagnosis and treatment in light of published literature.
