Abstract

Abstract. The etiologies of choledochus cysts are not exactly known. Its classic triads are abdominal pain, mass in abdominal area and icter. A 2-year-old girl was brought in with temperature, vomiting and abdominal pain complaints. In her physical examination, there was no sensitivity, defense and rebound in the abdomen. There was also no icter in her body. In the laboratory examination aspartate transaminase and alanine aminotransferase were slightly high, gama-glutamyl transferase and alkaline phosphatase also significantly high. Her abdomen ultrasonography showed a dimensionally cystic dilatation with dimensions of 2x1,5 cm and cholecytitis was seen in choledochus proximals. In abdomen computerized tomography a dimensionally 13 mm cystic structure was observed in choledochus distal terminus adjacency associated with choledochus. Our case was orientated to pediatric surgery in terms of follow-up and therapy. Key words: Abdominal pain, Ultrasonography, child, computerized tomography
