Periampullary tumor causing obstructive jaundice

This patient was a 52 year old lady with jaundice secondary to a periampullary tumor. The CT films showed a dilated CBD (A: green arrow) with abrupt narrowing of lumen (B: green arrow). Contrast injection during ERCP showed a markedly dilated biliary tree (C: green arrows). A 10 French plastic stent of 12 cm length was placed (D: green arrows).
