  • Title: [Choledochal cyst. The clinical picture, diagnosis and therapy].
    Author: Braun E, Baldauf S, Horn J, Seitz HK.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1988 May 13; 113(19):773-5. PubMed ID: 3366078.
    Abstract:
    A 21-year-old woman who for more than one year had had epigastric pain which was unrelated to food and radiated belt-like, was found to have a marked increase in gamma-GT, slightly elevated phosphatase activity, and increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate. The diagnosis of choledochal cyst, type Ia, was confirmed by sonography, endoscopic retrograde pancreatography and intravenous cholangiography. A choledochocystojejunostomy with a Y-Roux anastomosis was constructed to stop the cholestasis and prevent complications. The patient became symptom-free after the operation.
