Abstract:

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma located in the bile duct is an exceptional presentation. Clinical and radiographic manifestations are similar to cholangiocarcinoma. This diagnostic dilemma may lead to the indication of unnecessary and potentially morbid surgical resections. We report the case of a 74-year-old patient with a biliary lymphoma mimicking cholangiocarcinoma

Keywords: Bile ducts; Cholangiocarcinoma; Lymphoma.
