-Abstract-
peripheral cholangiocarcinoma which was originated from the small bile ducts and
generally presents an infiltrative growth, intraductal growth in the peripheral large duct
tributaries, is very unusual. Mucin-producing cholangiocarcinoma showing intraductal
spread has been reported previously, and it is difficult to diagnose this type of
cholangiocarcinoma definitely in early stage in spite of jaundice due to mucin impaction
in the common bile duct. We experienced a 49-year-old male patient who had hepatic
mass observed incidentally without any specific symptom. This patient was diagnosed as
having mucin-producing cholangiocarcinoma by abdominal ultrasonography, computed
tomography scan and ERCP. He received hepatic resection successfully. It was
diagnosed as mucin-producing cholangiocarcinoma, intrahepatic variant. He is expected
to have long term survival, We report this case because the case of asymptomatic
mucin-producing cholangiocarcinoma diagnosed at such an early stage is rare.
