Core Tip

Core tip: We reported a case of 46-year-old women presented with chronic intermittent abdominal pain without jaundice. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography revealed pancreatobiliary maljunction. Radical cholecystectomy with pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. Pathological report showed gallbladder cancer synchronous with pancreatic head cancer. In the pancreatobiliary maljunction with pancreatobiliary reflux condition double primary cancer of pancreatobiliary system should be kept in mind.
