Abstract
Choledochal cysts (CDC) have been traditionally classified into five types and subtypes based on the pattern and location of involvement of intra and extra hepatic biliary tree. Herein, we describe a new variant of choledochal cyst which has not been previously described in the English-language medical literature.
