A 76-year-old man presented with fever of unknown origin. Diagnostic imaging showed a liver tumor measuring 3cm in maximum dimension. The tumor was subsequently resected, and histopathology showed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. This showed a number of bile ductules with variable amounts of stroma, well circumscribed but not encapsulated, so the lesion was diagnosed as a cholangiocarcinoma. Within the tumor there was also a cholangiolocarcinoma-like lesion. In addition, cystically dilated ductules resembling bile duct hamartoma and bile duct adenoma adjacent to the tumor were found, but with no area of transition among them. In the Glisson's capsule around the tumor, there was also a bile duct hamartoma.

Department of Gastroenterology, Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, National Clinical Research Center for Child Health, Hangzhou, China.
Background: Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a rare disease. The variable clinical manifestations make the diagnosis of ALGS difficult. This study aimed to provide a basis for the early diagnosis of ALGS patients whose clinical identification is difficult and to enrich the spectrum of genetic variants implicated in Chinese children with ALGS.

An aqueous solution of a common food dye, Fast Green FCF (FG), mimics cholyl-lysyl-fluorescein to visualize embryonic bile flow via single peritoneal injection into intrauterine mouse embryos. Despite its efficacy in embryos, its suitability for adult mice and small to medium-sized mammals remained uncertain. In this study, we investigated FG cholangiography in adult mice, dogs, and goats.

Department of General Surgery, Fiona Stanley Hospital, 11 Robin Warren Dr, Murdoch, WA, Australia.
Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the preferred treatment for symptomatic cholelithiasis and acute cholecystitis, with increasing applications even in severe cases. However, the possibility of postoperative endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to manage choledocholithiasis or biliary injuries poses significant clinical challenges. This study aimed to develop a predictive model for ERCP incidence following emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy using advanced machine learning techniques.
