Abstract
The patient is a 39-year-old woman who had recurrent cholangitis. An anomalouspancreatico-biliary ductal union was observed under cine-ERCP. It showed that there was an abnormal crossing union communicated with several small branching ducts between common bile duct and pancreatic duct derived from dorsal pancreas. A pancreatic duct derived from ventral pancreas was not found. This abnormality seemed to be the cause of recurrent cholangitis and so cholecystectomy and hepatic ducto-jejunostomy were performed. There were high amylase (19, 200 Somogi Unit) and E. coli in the bile juice.The present case is named "abnormal crossing type" in the Tenri's classification of anomalous pancreatico-biliary unions.
