Case report describes common bile duct duplication in a patient with unresectable pancreatic cancer, suggesting the need for careful diagnostic imaging.
Extrahepatic biliary anomalies are rarely diagnosed. These anomalies are usually detected incidentally after investigating clinical findings in patients such as obstructive jaundice, pancreatitis, or biliary tract malignancies. In our study, we describe common bile duct duplication in a patient scheduled for palliative hepaticojejunostomy due to unresectable pancreatic cancer. We are presenting a case with type I common bile duct anomaly.
