primary sclerosing cholangitis
sclerosing cholangitis characterized by fibroobliterative inflammation of the biliary tract, leading to cirrhosis and portal hypertension
cholestasis
Cholestasis is a condition where the flow of bile from the liver to the duodenum is impaired. The two basic distinctions are:
primary biliary cholangitis
liver cirrhosis characterized by chronic and slow progressive destruction of intrahepatic bile ducts
Opisthorchis viverrini
species of trematode
biliary atresia
congenital disorder of digestive system investigation of choice of the disease is MRCP
choledocholithiasis
Human disease
choledochal cyst
congenital disorder of digestive system
postcholecystectomy syndrome
Human disease
biliary dyskinesia
gallbladder disease characterized by altered tonus of the sphincter of Oddi, disturbance in the coordination of contraction of the biliary ducts, and/or reduction in the speed of emptying of the biliary tree
sphincter of Oddi dysfunction
organic or functional motility disorder involving the sphincter of Oddi and associated with biliary colic
Biloma
thumb|261x261px|Duodenobiliary fistula of biliary tree. |alt=Image is an X-ray of Duodenobiliary fistula of biliary tree. It shows pipe like ulcers that result from the fistula.Barium demonstrates contrasts into the bile ducts. A biloma is a circumscribed abdominal collection of bile outside the biliary tree. It occurs when there is excess bile in the abdominal cavity during or after a bile leak. There is an increased chance of a person developing biloma after having a gallbladder removal surgery, known as laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This procedure can be complicated by biloma with incidence
