  2. Postcholecystectomy syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postcholecystectomy_syndrome

    Non-biliary causes of PCS may be caused by a functional gastrointestinal disorder, such as functional dyspepsia. [6] Chronic diarrhea in postcholecystectomy syndrome is a type of bile acid diarrhea (type 3). [3] This can be treated with a bile acid sequestrant like cholestyramine, [3] colestipol [2] or colesevelam, [7] which may be better ...

  3. Biloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biloma

    Leakage of bile and destruction of the biliary tree are the most common causes of biloma. Destruction of the billary tree means that there is a blockage in the pancreatic or bile duct. Bile ducts are vessels that carry from the liver to the gallbladder. When bile becomes blocked, pancreatic juices cannot be transported to the intestines.

  4. Biliary injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biliary_injury

    Biliary injury (bile duct injury) is the traumatic damage of the bile ducts. It is most commonly an iatrogenic complication of cholecystectomy (surgical removal of the gallbladder), but can also be caused by other operations or by major trauma. The risk of biliary injury is higher during laparoscopic cholecystectomy than during open ...

  5. Accessory bile duct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessory_bile_duct

    Although they may not drain any liver parenchyma, they can be a source of a bile leak or biliary peritonitis after cholecystectomy in both adults and children. If an accessory bile duct goes unrecognized at the time of the gallbladder removal, 5–7 days post-operative the patient will develop bile peritonitis, [10] an easily treatable complication with a morbidity rate of 44% if left untreated.

  6. Biliary dyskinesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biliary_dyskinesia

    Apparently, the common bile duct beyond (distal to) the gallbladder tends to normally have a greater tone so that the bile backs up into the gallbladder. When bile enters the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine), it aids in digesting the fat within food leaving the stomach. When the bile can not be properly propelled from the not ...

  7. Gallbladder disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallbladder_disease

    Gallbladder diseases are diseases involving the gallbladder and is closely linked to biliary disease, with the most common cause being gallstones (cholelithiasis). [1] [2]The gallbladder is designed to aid in the digestion of fats by concentrating and storing the bile made in the liver and transferring it through the biliary tract to the digestive system through bile ducts that connect the ...

  8. Hyperbilirubinemia in adults - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbilirubinemia_in_adults

    Secondary extra-hepatic disorders involve organs excluding the liver. When a tumour develops at the pancreas head or bile duct, the common bile duct is compressed, opposing bile flow, eventually leading to hyperbilirubinemia. [4] Gallbladder carcinoma displays enlarged liver with Courvoisier's sign, a mass in the liver's right-upper quadrant. [27]

  9. Cholecystitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholecystitis

    Blockage of the cystic duct by a gallstone causes a buildup of bile in the gallbladder and increased pressure within the gallbladder. Concentrated bile, pressure, and sometimes bacterial infection irritate and damage the gallbladder wall, causing inflammation and swelling of the gallbladder. [1]
