Abstract:

A 33 year old female with epigastric pain and normal liver function tests who previously had undergone cholecystectomy underwent Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) which demonstrated a high grade stenosis of the common hepatic duct. A subsequent CT cholangiogram with arterial phase demonstrated that the apparent stricture was artefactual from pulsations from the hepatic artery.
