Abstract
Hydatid cyst with cystobiliary communication causing obstructive jaundice is a rare but serious event. Here we present a patient 38 year old female who presented with pain in right upper abdomen, jaundice and fever with palpable liver. Ultrasound of abdomen showed hydatid cyst of left lobe of liver. CT scan of abdomen showed hydatid cyst in the left lobe of liver communicating with left hepatic duct. On ERCP hydatid membrane was seen protruding from papilla. Cholangiogram revealed large round cystic cavity in left lobe of liver communicating with left hepatic duct. Endoscopic stenting was done. Subsequent surgery was done with resection of segment II & III of liver containing the cyst cavity. Communication with left hepatic duct was overrun and T tube was placed. Postoperative course was uneventful.
