A 50 Age - year Age - old Age lady Sex presented Clinical_event with complaints of pain Sign_symptom abdomen Biological_structure and jaundice Sign_symptom for one Duration and Duration a Duration half Duration months Duration ; she also complained of intermittent Detailed_description type of fever Sign_symptom in the last Duration 1 Duration week Duration .
Physical Diagnostic_procedure examination Diagnostic_procedure revealed presence of icterus Sign_symptom and a palpable Detailed_description tender Detailed_description globular Shape mass Sign_symptom in the right Biological_structure hypochondrium Biological_structure measuring 3 Area   × Area   3 Area cm Area .
A clinical diagnosis of obstructive Detailed_description jaundice Sign_symptom secondary to periampullary Disease_disorder carcinoma Disease_disorder was made.
Ultrasonographic Diagnostic_procedure examination Diagnostic_procedure of the abdomen Biological_structure and pelvis Biological_structure revealed dilatation Sign_symptom of Sign_symptom the Sign_symptom intrahepatic Biological_structure biliary Biological_structure radicles Biological_structure ( IHBR Biological_structure ), with multiple Detailed_description freely mobile Detailed_description gall Sign_symptom stones Sign_symptom and a dilated Sign_symptom common Biological_structure bile Biological_structure duct Biological_structure ( CBD Biological_structure ) measuring 1.8 Distance cm Distance with sudden Detailed_description narrowing Detailed_description at Detailed_description its Detailed_description distal Detailed_description end Detailed_description .
CT Diagnostic_procedure scan Diagnostic_procedure showed moderate Severity dilatation Sign_symptom of Sign_symptom the Sign_symptom extra Sign_symptom and Sign_symptom intrahepatic Sign_symptom biliary Sign_symptom radicles Sign_symptom , cholelithiasis Sign_symptom with suspicious thickening Sign_symptom of Sign_symptom the Sign_symptom gall Sign_symptom bladder Sign_symptom wall Sign_symptom at the fundus Biological_structure , and a distal Biological_attribute CBD Biological_attribute stricture Sign_symptom .
There was no evidence of any distant metastasis Sign_symptom (Fig.1).
A preoperative diagnosis of periampullary Disease_disorder carcinoma Disease_disorder with chronic Disease_disorder cholecystitis Disease_disorder was made, and the patient planned Clinical_event for a pancreaticoduodenectomy Therapeutic_procedure ( Whipple’s Therapeutic_procedure procedure Therapeutic_procedure ) after optimization.
The patient underwent a classical Whipple’s Therapeutic_procedure procedure Therapeutic_procedure ; table Diagnostic_procedure examination Diagnostic_procedure of the resected Biological_structure specimen Biological_structure revealed multiple Detailed_description gall Sign_symptom stones Sign_symptom in the gall Biological_structure bladder Biological_structure with area of mucosal Sign_symptom thickening Sign_symptom at the fundus Biological_structure and an irregular Detailed_description circumferential Detailed_description growth Sign_symptom involving the intrapancreatic Biological_structure portion Biological_structure of Biological_structure the Biological_structure CBD Biological_structure .
Postoperative Therapeutic_procedure period Therapeutic_procedure was uneventful Lab_value , and the patient recovered Clinical_event satisfactorily Lab_value .
Histopathological Diagnostic_procedure examination Diagnostic_procedure of the resected Biological_structure specimen Biological_structure (Figs.2 and ​3) revealed thickening Sign_symptom of Sign_symptom the Sign_symptom gall Sign_symptom bladder Sign_symptom wall Sign_symptom at the fundus Biological_structure with multiple Detailed_description small Detailed_description calculi Sign_symptom , the largest measuring 1.4 Distance cm Distance (Fig.3).
Sections studied from the area of thickening showed features suggestive of adenocarcinoma Disease_disorder limited to the mucosa Biological_structure .
Microscopic Diagnostic_procedure sections Diagnostic_procedure obtained from the distal Biological_structure CBD Biological_structure region Biological_structure showed adenocarcinoma Disease_disorder of the common Biological_structure bile Biological_structure duct Biological_structure with invasion Detailed_description into the muscular Biological_structure wall Biological_structure of Biological_structure the Biological_structure duodenum Biological_structure .
Sections Diagnostic_procedure studied from the resected Biological_structure lymph Biological_structure nodes Biological_structure were free of tumor Sign_symptom cells Sign_symptom .
A pathological staging of pT1aN0M0 Detailed_description for adenocarcinoma Disease_disorder of the gall Biological_structure bladder Biological_structure and pT2N0M0 Detailed_description for adenocarcinoma Disease_disorder of the distal Biological_structure CBD Biological_structure was made, and the patient was not subjected to any adjuvant Medication therapy Medication .
The patient was disease Sign_symptom -free 2 Date years Date after Date surgery Date .
