Abstract
We read with great interest the scientific letter by Sánchez Melgarejo JF et al., in which they report a degenerate Todani Ia choledochal cyst in a patient with a pancreas divisum. However, patients with a choledochal cyst might benefit from per oral cholangioscopy for malignancy detection and extension evaluation.
