[Cholecystolithiasis causing Mirizzi's syndrome with a rare anomaly of the extrahepatic bile duct in a child. Report of a case].
A 14 year-old girl, who was admitted to our hospital due to increasing jaundice, intermittent right upper quadrant pain and fever, underwent operation based on the diagnosis of the Mirizzi's syndrome. Calculi filled the cystic duct and compressed the right hepatic duct. The right and left hepatic ducts lay closer to the duodenum than usual. The operation was limited to cholecystectomy alone. The calculi showed laminar cut surfaces and were composed of bilirubin lime. In addition to reporting our case, the literature dealing with this particular entity is reviewed.
