Abstract
A case in which entry of the common bile duct into a duodenal diverticulum was demonstrated preoperatively by conventional upper gastrointestinal examination and hypotonic duodenography is described. Confirmation by intra- and postoperative cholangiography was obtained. The condition predisposes to biliary and/or pancreatic inflammatory disease and its preoperative diagnosis facilitates appropriate surgical management.Keywords
