Benign cystic teratomas rarely originate from the extrahepatic common bile duct. This report details a rare case in a 4-month-old girl, highlighting surgical management and anomalous bile duct findings.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Teratomas are germ cell tumors that can occur in various locations.
  • Extrahepatic common bile duct teratomas are exceptionally rare, with only two prior reported cases.
  • Understanding the embryological origin and presentation of these rare tumors is crucial for diagnosis and management.

Observation:

  • A 4-month-old female infant presented with a benign cystic teratoma originating from the distal common hepatic bile duct.
  • The patient exhibited anomalous common bile duct anatomy.
  • Imaging and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of cystic teratoma.

Findings:

  • This case represents the third documented instance of a teratoma arising from the extrahepatic common bile duct.

  • The teratoma was benign and cystic in nature.
  • The presence of anomalous bile ducts in conjunction with the teratoma adds complexity to the clinical picture.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering rare diagnoses in pediatric hepatobiliary pathology.
    • Surgical management strategies for such rare tumors need careful consideration due to anatomical variations.
    • Further research into the etiology and optimal treatment of extrahepatic bile duct teratomas is warranted.
