aberrant cystic duct insertion

Anatomical

variations of cystic duct insertion and their relationship with choledocholithiasis: an MRCP study. Schematic demonstration of cystic duct confluence with extrahepatic bile duct. The craniocaudal insertion level is labeled by the letters H, M and L indicating high, mid and low insertions, respectively (a). The transverse site of insertion is labeled by the letters L, A, M and P indicating lateral, anterior, medial and posterior insertions, respectively (b)

Anatomical

variations of cystic duct insertion and their relationship with choledocholithiasis: an MRCP study. The 3D volume rendering MRCP images demonstrate the high-lateral (a), mid-anterior (b), mid-posterior (c), mid-medial (d), mid-lateral (e), and low-medial (f) insertions of the cystic duct

Anatomical

variations of cystic duct insertion and their relationship with choledocholithiasis: an MRCP study. A patient with mid-lateral insertion of cystic duct and choledocholithiasis. The coronal a MRCP image depicts the mid insertion level, and the axial b MRCP image shows the lateral insertion site. Note the insertion point (arrows) and the multiple stones (arrowheads) in the common bile duct

Anatomical

variations of cystic duct insertion and their relationship with choledocholithiasis: an MRCP study. A patient with low-medial insertion of cystic duct with no choledocholithiasis. The Coronal (a) and 3D volume rendering (b) MRCP images demonstrate the low medial insertion (white arrow) of cystic duct with no stone in the common bile duct
