  • Title: Intrabiliary rupture of a hydatid liver cyst: a case report.
    Author: Saracino A, Scotto G, Ciavarella G, Natale C, Palumbo E, Cibelli DC, Angarano G.
    Journal: New Microbiol; 2004 Jul; 27(3):301-3. PubMed ID: 15460534.
    Abstract:
    Intrabiliary rupture of a hydatid liver cyst is a rare occurrence which may result in the development of obstructive jaundice and cholangitis. In this report we discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic management of a patient in whom the parasitic nature of cholangitis was underestimated due to the small size and site of the cyst, and to the misleading concomitant presence of cholelithiasis.
