Objective: Choledochal cysts (CCs) represent cystic dilatations of the intra- or extrahepatic biliary tract. The diagnosis of CCs may not always be straightforward particularly for the intrahepatic subtype. Whereas the gold standard for diagnosing CCs is endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is commonly used as primary diagnostic tool for delineation of biliary pathologies including CCs.
Methods: We report a case of cystic hepatic lesion near the confluence of bilateral intrahepatic ducts. MRCP shows direct anatomical communication between the lesion and the biliary tract, raising suspicion of a CC. Endoscopic ultrasound shows no communication between the lesion and biliary system. 99mTc-hepatic iminodiacetic acid scintigraphy (hepatobiliary scintigraphy) was subsequently performed, showing no tracer uptake in the concerned cystic hepatic lesion despite visualisation of gallbladder and transit of tracer into the intestine. Overall scintigraphic findings speak against a CC.
Conclusion: The case showed conflicting anatomical findings of a CC on MRCP and endoscopic ultrasound. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy and hepatobiliary contrast MRI may both functionally demonstrate communication of a hepatic lesion with the biliary tract. But hepatobiliary scintigraphy offers the advantage of much higher hepatic extraction and hence higher resistance to competition from plasma bilirubin compared with hepatobiliary contrast MRI. The better pharmacokinetics of HIDA confer superior lesion contrast that may offset inferior image spatial resolution, in particular for large lesions and patients with hyperbilirubinaemia. Hepatobiliary scintigraphy should be considered a suitable functional diagnostic modality for CCs even in the era of magnetic resonance imaging with cholangiopancreatography and contrast-enhanced hepatobiliary phase.
