Cystic biliary anomaly in a newborn with features of choledochal cyst and cystic biliary atresia
Cystic biliary atresia (CBA) and choledochal cysts (CDC) can present similarly with early onset jaundice, conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, and radiographic cystic biliary dilatations. We present the case of an infant antenatally diagnosed with a congenital biliary dilatation found to have non-atretic...
