  • Title: [Neuromas of the extrahepatic bile ducts].
    Author: Wysocki A, Papla B.
    Journal: Przegl Lek; 1999; 56(11):747-9. PubMed ID: 10800590.
    Abstract:
    Authors collected three cases of neuromas situated in the wall of extrahepatic bile ducts, which occluded lumen and caused jaundice. In two cases without any evidence of previous surgery or cholelithiasis, neuroma was localized in ductus choledochus. After excision of ductus choledochus and cholecystectomy, we performed hepaticojejunostomy Roux--en Y. In the last patient, 7 years after cholecystectomy, neuroma localized in hepatic duct was treated by T-tube. In all patients with mechanical jaundice, before operation we had never correctly diagnosed this very rare cause of obstruction of extrahepatic bile ducts.
