    Area of Science:

    • Hepatobiliary surgery
    • Obstetrics and Gynecology
    • Medical imaging

    Background:

    • Choledochal cysts are rare congenital biliary tree dilations.
    • Pregnancy can alter the presentation and management of biliary pathologies.
    • Early diagnosis is crucial for preventing complications.

    Observation:

    • A 27-year-old primipara at 22 weeks gestation presented with a large choledochal cyst.
    • Symptoms included right upper quadrant mass, pain, and jaundice (icterus).
    • The cyst mimicked a tumor, necessitating thorough investigation.

    Findings:

    • Diagnostic imaging confirmed a huge choledochal cyst.
    • Classical signs of biliary obstruction were present.
    • The relationship between the cyst and pregnancy was evaluated.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of considering biliary anomalies in pregnant patients.
    • Timely diagnosis and management are essential for maternal and fetal well-being.
    • Further research into pregnancy-associated choledochal cysts is warranted.
