J Hepatobiliary Pancreat Sci. 2020 Sep;27(9):665-666. doi: 10.1002/jhbp.779. Epub 2020 Jul 13.

Abstract

Highlight Fukuba and colleagues report a case of lower common bile duct cancer with the extremely rare anomaly of left and right bile ducts parallel with the duodenal papilla, and joined distally to form a single short common bile duct. Fully covered metallic stents were placed in a side-by-side manner.

Keywords: bile duct; bile duct neoplasms; cholangiopancreatography; endoscopic retrograde; extrahepatic/abnormality; magnetic resonance; self-expandable metallic stents.
