“…However, cystic duct dilatation may be seen coexisting in various combinations with other types, as described in the literature. [29303132] MRCP is an excellent modality to demonstrate choledochal cyst. On heavily T2-weighted sequences, they are characterized by a hyperintense tubular, fusiform, or cystic dilatation of the bile ducts.…”

Ductal plate malformations are a heterogenous group of congenital fibrocystic liver diseases resulting from insult to the ductal plate at various stages of embryogenesis. As a result various biliary malformations, cysts, hamartomas and congenital hepatic fibrosis may be seen. We present a radiological pictorial of ductal plate malformations, accurate diagnosis of which is important for clinical management.

Introduction Although the symptoms attributed to gall stones resolve in most patients after cholecystectomy, some may have symptoms that persist or recur. It is known as the post-cholecystectomy syndrome (PCS). The aim of this case was to describe the diagnostic difficulties encountered and to discuss the main etiologies of this entity. Case report A 54-year-old man presented for a recurrent right upper quadrant pain despite laparoscopic cholecystectomy five years ago. Imaging showed cystic lesion at the gallbladder fossa with gallstones. We decided to reoperate the patient by laparoscopic approach. It turned to be a residual gallbladder with stones inside. It was confirmed by histopathology. He was asymptomatic after a follow-up of 2 years. Discussion The PCS should not be trivialized. Most of the causes are allocated to extra biliary etiologies. They must be ruled out first as most of them can be controlled with medication. There are etiologies for which re-operation can be necessary. Conclusion The indication of cholecystectomy must be taken wisely otherwise surgery will not solve the problem. Even though patient may complain of persistence or recurrence of the pain. In this case, it can be a real challenge for both diagnosis and treatment.

“…4 Type VI cysts are rare isolated dilatations of the cystic duct proposed for inclusion in the Todani classification with few reports described in the literature. [4][5][6] Bhoil et al 7 proposed these cysts could be further subclassified into two types: type VIA are isolated dilatations of the cystic duct and type VIB involve combined dilatations of the cystic duct as well as the CBD. Often misdiagnosed as a type II choledochal cyst, these cysts are considered distinct and can be distinguished from type II choledochal cyst only if a normal calibre cystic duct can be identified between the choledochal cyst and CBD.…”
