The value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is demonstrated in a case of a 22-year-old female with a small choledochocele clinically presenting with acute cholecystitis and pancreatitis. Previous abdominal sonography and computed tomography were not diagnostic. MRI and MRCP showed a cystic dilatation of the distal common bile duct, intramurally located in the second portion of the duodenum and protruding into the duodenal lumen. These findings allowed a confident diagnosis of a choledochocele.
