Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses a case study involving a 60-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain in the epigastric region. The patient had a history of cholecystectomy and cervical carcinoma surgeries. Imaging revealed a possible bile duct tumor, but lab parameters were normal. The patient underwent endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, which showed a mass in the cystic duct protruding into the common bile duct. Biopsy confirmed cystic duct neuroma, a non-neoplastic proliferation caused by nerve injury. Biliary stenting was done, and the patient is currently asymptomatic. This case highlights the use of SPI glass cholangioscopy in diagnosing cystic duct neuroma, potentially avoiding unnecessary surgery. <br /><br />No specific credits were mentioned in the transcript.
