主 题:Duodenal cancer Choledochal cyst Cystic metastasis Mucinous adenocarcinoma
摘 要:A 51-year-old male patient was referred to our hospital because of an incidentally detected cystic mass near the common bile duct(CBD). Imaging studies demonstrated a cystic mass that was suspected to communicate with the CBD. Gastroscopy showed irregular mucosal thickening with hyperemic change in the second portion of the duodenum. A type Ⅱ choledochal cyst combined with duodenal malignancy was suspected. The patient underwent surgical resection and the histological diagnosis was mucinous adenocarcinoma of the duodenum with cystic metastasis. Although its incidence is extremely rare, care should be taken to check for other sites of malignancy when a pericholedochal cystic mass is detected.
