Paraganglionoma of extrahepatic biliary tract causing obstructive jaundice.

We report a young woman with paraganglionoma arising from the extrahepatic bile duct presenting with acute obstructive jaundice. The patient underwent excision of the gall bladder and extrahepatic bile duct with the tumor, and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. She is asymptomatic 9 months later, with normal biochemical investigations and imaging.
