Abstract Hydatid cysts developing primarily in the common bile duct are extremely rare. Occasionally, hydatid cysts rupture into the extrahepatic biliary ducts and cause obstruction [1–7]. Two children with intact hydatid cysts in the common bile duct and choledochal cysts were seen during a 2-year period in the Paediatric Surgery Division of the Children's Hospital, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi. The details of their presentation and operative management are reported.
