Abstract
Choledochocele is a rare form of choledochal cyst [1, 2]. Usually, it manifests clinically with epigastric pain of colic type, jaundice, and/or pancreatitis. Occasionally, a palpable mass may be found. We describe two cases of intestinal intussusception as a presenting feature of choledochocele.
