Abstract
Biloma refers to the accumulation of bile outside the biliary tract, which can be encapsulated or not. This condition is often caused by trauma, abdominal surgery, duodenal diverticula, or biliary disease. Spontaneous perforation of the common bile duct is rare in adults, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. We present a case of spontaneous retroperitoneal biloma complicating a tumor of the main bile duct in a 77-year-old woman.
