    This study reports a rare case of multiple congenital biliary cysts affecting both intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts. Surgical intervention led to a successful outcome, with the patient remaining asymptomatic post-operation.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Hepatobiliary Medicine

    Background:

    • Congenital choledochal cysts typically present as single dilatations of the extrahepatic bile ducts.
    • Multiple biliary cysts are exceptionally rare, posing diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

    Observation:

    • A patient presented with multiple, interconnected intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary cysts.
    • Intraoperative cholangiography confirmed free reflux between all cysts and into the intrahepatic biliary tree.

    Findings:

    • The patient underwent a side-to-side choledochocystoduodenostomy for surgical management.
    • Postoperative recovery was successful, with no recurrence of symptoms over a year of follow-up.

    Implications:

    • This case expands the known spectrum of congenital biliary system malformations.
    • Effective surgical management is crucial for rare presentations of multiple choledochal cysts.
    • Highlights the importance of thorough intraoperative assessment in complex biliary anomalies.
