Pancreaticobiliary common channel associated with common duct stricture

The etiology of diffuse or cystic dilatation of the common bile duct is still uncertain. Several authors have reported a long common pancreaticobiliary channel in association with a choledochal cyst. We report a similar case of a two-year-old female in which ERCP identified a common duct stricture. The common channel anomaly was seen by intraoperative cholangiography.
