The sites of aberrant insertion of bile ducts is shown in the illustration. Inspection of the illustration "reveals the fact that the ducts tend to fall into two general groups - those bordering upon the pylorus or extending further into the stomach (group A) and those (group B) situated on the duodenum within 3 cm. of the usual of the ampulla of Vater."
From Boyden, E.A. The problem of the double ductus choledocus (an interpretation of an accessory bile duct attached to the pars superior of the duodenum). Anat. Rec.55:71-93, 1932.
