Sump syndrome is recognized as a rare and long term complication of biliary enteric anastomosis. It results from the reflux of biliary and enteric contents into the distal segment of the common bile duct leading to biliary and or pancreatic complications. We report the case of a 90-years-old woman who presented to our department with an acute cholangitis. Her past medical history included a cholecystectomy with side-to-side choledochoduodenostomy performed 30 years ago. Imaging showed pneumobilia and a grossly dilated bile ducts. She was successfully treated by ERCP with multiple food debris and stones extraction as described in the video case.
