    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Hepatobiliary Surgery

    Background:

    • Choledochoceles are cystic polypoid lesions located in the terminal common bile duct.
    • They represent a rare subset of choledochal cysts, accounting for approximately 4% of cases.

    Observation:

    • A case of choledochal cyst is presented in a 78-year-old female patient.
    • The diagnosis was missed during a cholecystectomy performed one year prior to presentation.

    Findings:

    • The patient underwent surgical excision for the choledochal cyst.
    • The case was notable for the patient's advanced age and the delayed diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering choledochal cysts in the differential diagnosis of biliary tract lesions, regardless of patient age.

  • Diagnostic challenges and the potential for missed diagnoses in elderly patients require careful consideration.
  • Surgical management remains a primary treatment option for symptomatic choledochoceles.
