Abstract:
To investigate some rare causes of obstructive jaundice in children. Three school children with obstructive jaundice caused by uncommon causes were analyzed. Despite pre operative physical examination, B Ultrasonic and CT examinations, the diagnosis was not established. The main clinical manifestation of three patients was obstructive jaundice. Postoperative pathological examination proved that one patient was suffering from cryptococcus neoformans infection of the common bile duct, another embryonal rabdomyosarcoma of common bile duct, and the third primary hydatid cysts in the common bile duct. They were all treated with surgical removal of the lesions, followed by reconstruction of the bile duct and other adjunctive treatment with satisfactory result. The results suggest that obstructive jaundice in children may be caused by some unusual diseases. Comprehensive analysis and corresponding treatments were recommended.
