ABSTRACT
Intrahepatic biliary cysts are rarely seen in the patients with biliary atresia. We describe a ten-month-old child with biliary atresia in whom the abdominal imaging studies (ultrasonography, computed tomographic scan and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography) revealed multiple intrahepatic biliary cysts ('bile lakes'). The child also had intrapulmonary shunting of blood due to pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae, which were demonstrated on contrast-enhanced echocardiography. Both these findings, 'bile lakes' and pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae occur rarely in biliary atresia.
