Abstract
Carcinoid tumors of common bile duct are extremely rare tumors. Clinically these tumors have indolent course and are typically managed by radical surgery. Here, we reported clinic- pathological features of carcinoid tumor in common bile duct in a 38-year young female, who presented with right upper abdominal pain of 1-month duration associated with multiple episodes of non-bilious vomiting and signs of icterus. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) revealed lower common bile duct stricture, biopsy of which showed well differentiated carcinoid tumor. Patient was sent for radical surgery.
