The session on Benign liver disease had an exemplary demonstration by a senior surgeon from Saudi Arabia about his series on choledochal cyst. Albeit considered as a disease of childhood, he showed the cases in adults with large size of cysts around 15-16 cms, and also the varieties and their surgical treatment. The point to take home was patients with a dilated fusiform common bile duct in the absence of stones should be worked up and investigated thouroughly. The only problem faced with insurance, is that the moment you diagnose it as a choledochal cyst, they will declare the case as congenital or preexisting and deny the coverage of the surgery. Any solutions for contesting the same?
