Abstract EN

Cholangiocarcinoma is an uncommon tumor, often diagnosed in the context of obstructive jaundice.

Brain metastasis rarely occurs with the cerebellum being a rare site of spread of this type of tumor.

Few cases of cholangiocarcinoma have been reported in the literature and this type of tumor is associated with a very poor outcome.

We present a very rare form of clinical presentation of cholangiocarcinoma with neurologic symptoms due to cerebellar metastases.
