Abstract:
A case is reported of minor hemobilia in a patient with hemophilia. The form of presentation of the clinical picture with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and jaundice suggested a biliary origin and echographic evidence of an anomalous content in the bile tract that was not of lithiasic nature suggested the diagnosis of hemobilia. This was confirmed by retrograde cholangiography, which showed the expulsion of a clot from the papilla and was followed by spontaneous remission of the clinical picture.
