Overview
Classification
According to the Todani system, there are five types of bile duct cysts.[1]. This classification was based on site of the cyst or dilatation. Type I to IV has been subtyped.
Type 1: Choledochal Cyst
Choledochal cysts are cystic dilatation of the common bile duct (CBD). Most common variety involving saccular or fusiform dilatation of a portion or entire common bile duct (CBD) with normal intrahepatic duct.
- Account for 80% to 90% of all bile duct cysts
- Often presents during infancy with significant liver disease.
- Characterized by fusiform dilation of the extrahepatic bile duct
- Theorized that choledochal cysts form as the result of reflux of pancreatic secretions into the bile duct via anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction.
- Cyst should be resected completely to prevent associated complications (i.e. ascending cholangitis and malignant transformation).
Type 2: Diverticulum
Isolated diverticulum protruding from the CBD.
- Accounts for 3% of all bile duct cysts
- Represents a true diverticulum.
- Saccular outpouchings arising from the supraduodenal extrahepatic bile duct or the intrahepatic bile ducts.
Type 3: Choledochocele[2]
Arise from dilatation of duodenal portion of CBD or where pancreatic duct meets.
- Accounts for 5% of all bile duct cysts
- Represents protrusion of a focally dilated, intramural segment of the distal common bile duct into the duodenum.
- Choledochoceles may be successfully managed with endoscopic sphincterotomy, surgical excision, or both, in symptomatic patients.
- Often present with pain and obstructive jaundice; many have pancreatitis.
Type 4: Multiple Communicating Intra and Extrahepatic Duct Cysts
Dilatation of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary duct.
- Second most common type of bile duct cysts (10%)
- Subdivided into subtypes A and B.
- Type 4A: Fusiform dilation of the entire extrahepatic bile duct with extension of dilation of the intrahepatic bile ducts
- Type 4B: Multiple cystic dilations involving only the extrahepatic bile duct.

Type 5: Caroli's Disease
Cystic dilatation of intra hepatic biliary ducts. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]
- Caroli's disease is a rare form of congenital biliary cystic disease manifested by cystic dilations of intrahepatic bile ducts
- Association with benign renal tubular ectasia and other forms of renal cystic disease.
