Abstract
An accessory bile duct was observed during anatomical dissection of the body of an 84-year-old man. The duct originated in the superior area of the lateral segment of the liver and penetrated the stomach wall in the region of the pylorus. Histologic examination revealed that the duct passed through the pyloric sphincter and could be traced to the submucosa of the pars superior of the duodenum. In addition the left gastric vein was enlarged and instead of opening into the portal vein, passed directly to the superior area of the lateral segment of the liver.
