Abstract
VARGAS-VASQUEZ, Nohiver; JIMENEZ-LUNA, Gerardo; QUINONES, Javier and SANCHEZ-TEMOCHE, Carlos. Caroli’s disease: report of one case. Rev Col Gastroenterol [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.3, pp.390-393. Epub Mar 01, 2021. ISSN 0120-9957. https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.387.
Caroli disease is a condition characterized by cystic dilatation of the intrahepatic biliary tree that usually affects the entire liver parenchyma, although extrahepatic biliary involvement is rare. The following is the case of a male patient who was admitted due to cholestatic jaundice, low weight, and pruritus for 45 days. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography reported multiple cystic dilatations in the intrahepatic bile ducts.
