ABSTRACT

Introduction: choledochal cysts (CC) are rare congenital malformations that cause cystic dilation of the intra- and extrahepatic bile ducts. Objective: we present the case of a newborn with a CC, Todani type IVa. Case description: newborn at term with low birth weight; bile duct dilation was detected prenatally. In the first days of life by imaging studies, CC Todani type IVa was diagnosed. At 15 days of age, the cyst was resected, as well as reconstruction using Roux-en-Y hepatojejunostomy. The patient had a good postoperative course. Conclusions: prenatal and neonatal diagnosis of choledochal cysts, as well as their early treatment, are essential to avoid complications and improve the prognosis of these patients.
