Biliary pseudocyst: A rare complication of antenatal perforation of forme fruste choledochal cyst

Abstract

Spontaneous perforation of choledochal cyst (CDC) is rare with an incidence of 1.8%–7%. Perforation with pseudocyst formation is even rarer, there being only two case reports. We report the first case of antenatal perforation of CDC with biliary pseudocyst formation in a newborn and its management.
