Clear the Path to Better Digestive Health.
Bile duct surgery is performed to address issues related to the bile ducts, which carry bile from the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine to aid digestion. Conditions that may require bile duct surgery include bile duct stones, strictures (narrowing), tumors, and injuries.
Bile Duct Stones (Choledocholithiasis): Stones can form in the bile ducts or migrate from the gallbladder, causing blockages and leading to pain, jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), and infection (cholangitis). Surgery may be required to remove the stones if other non-surgical treatments are not effective.
Bile Duct Strictures (Narrowing): Strictures can be caused by scarring from previous surgeries, infections, inflammation, or chronic conditions like pancreatitis. These conditions narrow the bile ducts, causing bile buildup. Surgical intervention is often necessary to widen the duct and restore normal bile flow.
Bile Duct Cancer (Cholangiocarcinoma) is a rare but serious condition. Surgery is often the primary treatment to remove the cancerous part of the bile duct, and sometimes surrounding tissue, depending on the extent of the cancer.
Bile Duct Injury: Injuries to the bile ducts can occur during abdominal surgeries, particularly gallbladder removal (cholecystectomy). Corrective surgery may be required to repair the injury and restore bile flow.
Minimally invasive laparoscopy or open surgery are two methods to perform bile duct surgery. Minimally invasive methods like ERCP are preferred when possible, but open surgery may be required in more complex cases.
