Haemobilia as a primary presentation of cholangiocarcinoma.

BMJ Case Rep

Hepato-pancreato-biliary Unit, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia.

Published: August 2024

We present a case of haemobilia as a primary presentation for underlying cholangiocarcinoma. A man in his 50s initially presented to emergency with Quincke's triad, RUQ pain, jaundice and UGI bleeding. The initial diagnosis of haemobilia was made on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) on primary presentation, but the presence of blood and the recurrent clot obstruction of the biliary tract made the underlying diagnosis extremely difficult, resulting in the patient having 4 ERCP, 1 spyglass and multiple CTs and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography. Eventually, the patient underwent a Whipple's procedure without tissue diagnosis, confirming cholangiocarcinoma on histopathology. This case emphasises the difficulty of diagnosis of underlying malignancy in the setting of haemobilia, the benefit of multidisciplinary meeting discussions to support significant interventions and the need to be cautious and curious when managing atypical presentations.
