Core Tip	Many authors have documented variations in the intra-hepatic ductal system, but to the best of our knowledge there has been no report on bile duct variations in Caribbean populations. In the unselected Eastern Caribbean population, 71.7% of persons have normal intra-hepatic biliary anatomy. Variant anatomy in this population occurs with the following frequencies: A2 (19.1%), A3 (4.6%) and A4 (3.95%).
