MR cholangiography in the evaluation of suspected intrabiliary rupture of hepatic hydatid cyst.
We report a case of intrabiliary hydatid cyst rupture that was indirectly suspected on computed tomography, diagnosed with magnetic resonance cholangiography (MRC), and confirmed with ultrasound and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. MRC evaluation is a highly sensitive and accurate method for diagnosing intrabiliary rupture.
