Investigations suggested a hepatic cyst but on exploration, she was found to have bilious ascites and a sub-hepatic biloma consistent with spontaneous biliary perforation. Intraoperative cholangiogram demonstrated an intact biliary tree and normal duodenal drainage. Closed-suction drainage of the sub-hepatic collection alone led to complete resolution of symptoms.
