JIMENEZ-BALLESTER, Miguel Ángel et al. Type II intrapancreatic choledochal malignant cyst in adults: duodenopancreatectomy. Rev. esp. enferm. dig. [online]. 2014, vol.106, n.3, pp.223-226. ISSN 1130-0108.

A 62-year-old female patient was admitted for abdominal pain and vomiting. Imaging tests revealed a solid-cystic lesion at the head of the pancreas communicating with the distal bile duct. A Todani type II choledochal cyst was diagnosed with neoplastic degeneration after cytological diagnosis with endoscopic ultrasound-guided puncture. The patient was treated with a cephalic duodenopancreatectomy with curative intention.
