TI  - Distal Common Bile Duct Tuberculosis with Obstructive Jaundice: A Case Report.
PG  - 198-201
AB  - Tuberculosis (TB) isolated in Common Bile Duct (CBD) is very rare and its 
      treatment is somewhat controversial. We report a case of distal CBD tuberculosis 
      diagnosed as cholangiocarcinoma. A 40 year old man presented with obstructive 
      jaundice without abdominal pain, fever or weight loss. Ultrasonography and 
      Magnetic Resonance Cholangio-Pancreatography (MRCP) indicated a mass lesion in 
      the Distal CBD, which caused structure of the distal common bile duct. As 
      Cholangiocarcinoma was suspected, he underwent Whipple procedure 
      (pancreaticoduodenectomy). Histological examination of resected specimen revealed 
      typical features of tuberculosis in the distal CBD, pancreatic head and lymph 
      nodes. The rest of the abdominal cavity was unremarkable. Anti-microbial therapy 
      for tuberculosis is started for 12 month course and he is well.
