title: Persistent common bile duct hematoma caused by a small cancer: case report.
abstract: We report a case in which an intrabiliary duct hematoma secondary to a coexisting smaller choledochal cancer was observed for more than a month. Initial noncontrast enhanced X-ray computed tomography (CT) showed the hematoma as a high-attenuation mass, leading to the preoperative diagnosis of choledochal stone or calcified tumor.
