  • Abdominal CT ( Fig. 1A, B ) performed at the other hospital and abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) ( Fig. 1C, D ) performed at our hospital revealed a localized bile duct dilatation measuring 2.0×0.8 cm in liver segment 5 without a demonstrable intraductal mass lesion and underlying steatosis of the liver. (e-cmh.org)
  • Assuming that the lesion of the localized bile duct dilatation in liver segment 5 was due to an IPNB, we decided to perform surgery after consultation with the general surgery department because the possibility of malignancy with IPNB could not be excluded. (e-cmh.org)
