Caroli disease: the diagnostic approach. 1979

M C Hermansen, and R J Starshak, and S L Werlin

Two new pediatric examples of Caroli disease are reported; one was diagnosed by operative cholangiography and one by percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography. Although a variety of approaches may lead one to suspect the diagnosis, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography is now the method of choice to establish the diagnosis.
