Two cases of neuroma of the common bile duct (CBD) associated with jaundice and cholangitis both 15 years after cholecystectomy are presented. The surgical treatment, excision of the diseased CBD, followed by Roux-en-Y biliary drainage in one case and excision of the tumor with T-tube drainage in the other, was curative. A review of the world literature revealed 20 prior cases of CBD neuromas, 19 associated with jaundice. None was diagnosed prior to operation or autopsy. Mortality of treatment was 15% and all deaths were associated with a failure to excise the neuroma.
