Abstract
The criteria defined PBM as “a congenital malformation in which the pancreatic and bile ducts join anatomically outside the duodenal wall”. This definition was formulated from an anatomical perspective and does not include functional elements.
The diagnostic criteria for CBD defined CBD as a “congenital malformation involving localized dilatation of the extrahepatic bile duct, including the common bile duct, and PBM.”
