Abstract

Primary carcinoid tumors of the biliary tract are extremely rare. We report a 36-year-old woman with recurrent acute cholangitis who was diagnosed to have a carcinoid in the common hepatic duct, with enlarged local nodes. She underwent local resection. I-131 metaiodobenzyl guanidine (MIBG) scanning postoperatively showed no uptake in the tumor bed.
