Deskripsi
Common bile duct (CBD) injuries from blunt abdominal trauma are rare. The diagnosis is often more difficult with incomplete injuries that result in a delayed presentation. We present a case of CBD injury due to trauma with delayed presentation. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography demonstrated the nature of extrahepatic bile duct and was treated successfully with endoscopic stent placement.
