Abstract:
A 20-month-old infant had bile peritonitis from spontaneous complete avulsion of the distal common bile duct. The patient had recovered from extensive neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis that included the duodenum. We believe that this late unusual biliary catastrophe was a consequence of the neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis.
