Digestive Endoscopy and Surgery Unit, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, IRCCS, Rome, Italy.
Background: Congenital biliary dilatation (CBD) is a congenital malformation of the main biliary tract usually associated with the pancreatobiliary maljunction (PBM), determining stone formation, cholangitis, pancreatitis, and cholangiocarcinoma. The role of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in treatment and diagnosis has not been established yet. Therefore, the aim of our study is to define the actual role of ERCP in children with CBD.

Introduction: Choledochal cysts are rare congenital anomalies of the bile ducts, with adult presentations being uncommon. This case is notable for its atypical presentation in a young adult, mimicking a hydatid cyst in a region where echinococcosis is endemic.
Case Presentation: A 22-year-old female presented with a 3-month history of progressive jaundice, accompanied by 5 months of epigastric and right upper quadrant pain, dark urine, pale stools, pruritus, and significant weight loss.
Incidental left paraaortic mass in a patient with gall bladder adenocarcinoma: A diagnostic challenge.

March 2025
Department of Pathology, Bir Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal.
Incidental adrenal masses are frequently detected due to the extensive use of cross-sectional imaging, with about 3% to 7% of adults estimated to have them. Paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas (PPGL), rare tumors originating from paraganglia tissues, including the adrenal medulla, continue to be imaging mimics, necessitating a multimodal approach for accurate diagnosis. We report a case of 72-years male presenting with intermittent pain abdomen for the past 1 year.

Introduction: Duplication of the gallbladder is a rare congenital malformation associated with the development of cholelithiasis. It increases the risk of iatrogenic bile duct injury during cholecystectomy and can lead to symptom recurrence if missed. Although preoperative imaging is helpful, detection rates are around 50 %.
