Hyperbilirubinemia is commonly seen in medical practice. But what could be the highest level of bilirubin in an individual that is still an unanswered question. We came across to a 37 years old lady in October 2018 with hepaticolithiasis who underwent extended choledocholithotomy. Her preoperative serum bilirubin was within normal range. Post-operatively she developed cholangitis and from 3rd post-operative day onwards she developed severe hyperbilirubinemia, which was high as 70.47 mg/dl on the 6th post-operative day. Other causes of post-operative hyperbilirubinemia were excluded. She was managed conservatively for this hyperbilirubinemia and bilirubin level gradually reduced.
