Abstract: | Congenital biliary dilatation (CBD) or choledochal cyst has previously been considered a rarity; however, the number of cases reported in the literature has been increasing. It is generally accepted that there is a predominance in Japanese, as more than one-third of the cases are from Japanese literature. |
