Abstract
This report describes a case of cholestatic jaundice caused by concretions of vegetable material obstructing the extrahepatic bile ducts. We have named this a biliary phytobezoar, by analogy with its gastric counterpart. The anomaly underlying this curiosity was a surgical cholecystogastrostomy performed 15 yr earlier.Entities:
