Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,
I understand your query and concern.
Choledocal cyst is absolutely treated by surgical means only.
Medical management is least effective in offering cure.
This surgical procedure should be done under expert consultation with a Surgical Gastroenterologist.
Post surgery you need to have follow up with both surgical gastroenterologist and a pediatric/adult medical gastroenterologist.
Thank you.
