Ascaris lumbricoides continues to be the main nematode that occurs in humans. In the majority of cases, no symptoms are observed. The hepatobiliary presentation is the less frequent clinical entity, but with high mortality. It is documented the case of a 48-years-old patient who is admitted with abdominal pain and jaundice. Given the ultrasound suggestive image of Ascaris, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is performed. The diagnostic and therapeutic approach is presented.
