Resección endoscópica bajo visión coledocoscópica de pólipo biliar. Reporte de un caso

Inflammatory pseudotumors of the biliary tract represent an infrequent biliary pathology, with few cases reported in literature. In radiological or surgical explorations, these tumors are usually diagnosed as unsuspected findings. They represent a challenge in preoperative diagnosis, due to the cost of specific technology such as Spyglass DS (Boston Scientific) and the need of trained personnel for its correct use. This means that most patients are usually treated with major resections with wrong preoperative diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma, missing a chance of an endoscopic solution while adding unnecessary morbidity and mortality in benign pathology. We present a case that underwent endoscopic resection by ERCP under direct choledochoscopic view for Kehr’s biliary fístula in the General Surgery Department of a central hospital.
