  • Title: Obstructive jaundice caused by primary choledochal hydatid cyst mimicking radiologically choledochal cyst.
    Author: Otgün I, Karnak I, Haliloglu M, Senocak ME.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2003 Feb; 38(2):256-8. PubMed ID: 12596118.
    Abstract:
    A 12-year-old girl with obstructive jaundice that was initially misinterpreted radiologically as having choledochal cyst is presented. A primary hydatid cyst in the wall of the common bile duct causing obstruction was found at operation. The authors emphasize that hydatid cyst should be included in the list of differential diagnoses of obstructive jaundice and cystic lesions located around the biliopancreatic junction in children.
