Cystic dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts.
Two cases of cystic dilatation of the intrahepatic biliary tree in Black patients are described. Both patients presented with extremely short histories of abdominal pain, and one patient had an associated jaundice. Biliary tree pathology was confirmed by physical examination and biochemical investigation in one patient while in the second patient cystic dilatation of the biliary tree was an incidental finding.
