Lemmel Syndrome as a Rare Cause of Prolonged Right Hypochondrial Pain: A Case Report
Lemmel syndrome is a rare cholestatic disease caused by a periampullary duodenal diverticulum (PAD) compressing the common bile duct (CBD) or pancreatic duct, which results in acute abdominal pain and/or obstructive jaundice in the absence of other pathology explaining the symptoms. It can be easily misdiagnosed unless carefully detected by abdominal ultrasound (US), barium studies, computed tomography (CT) scan, esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), and endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP), which is also the treatment modality of choice. We herein report a case of a 62-year-old male presenting with prolonged hypochondrial pain. He was diagnosed with Lemmel syndrome after performing US, barium meal, CT scan, EGD, and MRCP that was managed successfully by ERCP with sphincterotomy and stent placement.
