Recurrence of Choledocholith in the Common Bile Duct after Cholecystectomy in a Dog

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

A 10-year-old spayed female Yorkshire terrier presented with vomiting, and anorexia. Obstructive choledocholith with concurrent pancreatitis and hepatorenal syndrome was diagnosed based on analyses of the blood profiles, abdominal radiographs, ultrasonography and CT. Choledoliths were removed from the common bile duct, yet the patient died suddenly 10 days after surgery. Recurrent choledolithiasis has not been reported in a cholecystectomized dog and this report focuses on the imaging features of ultrasonography and CT of recurrent choledoliths.
