| Popis: |
A 37-year-old black West Indian woman with sarcoidosis developed obstructive jaundice due to stenosis involving the entire length of the common hepatic bile duct associated with stenosis of the cystic duct. Neither gallstones nor extrahepatic biliary tract lymph node involvement were found. Stenosis was ascribed to biliary involvement of sarcoidosis because of the presence of noncaseating granulomas in the cystic duct and the gallbladder neck. There was no hepatic involvement. Cholecystectomy and left hepaticojejunostomy were performed. Postoperative recovery was unremarkable. Jaundice disappeared and liver tests returned to normal values. This case report underlines the importance of verifying the patency of the extrahepatic biliary tract before severe cholestasis can be ascribed to intrahepatic involvement of sarcoidosis. |
