Adenomyomatous polyp of left hepatic duct

ABSTRACT

A case report of adenomyomatous polyp originating from the left hepatic duct causing surgical jaundice is made. Adenomyomatous polyp originating from the left hepatic duct is histologically similar to adenomyomatous hyperplasiaof the gall bladder as shown in the references above. In various journals available here, this type of polyp with its origin from hepatic duct has not been mentioned. Another important point is that it can be mistaken radiologically & clinically as cholangio carcinoma causing obstructive jaundice.
