Topics with B + Bile Duct Diseases Bile Duct Diseases
Your liver makes a substance called
bile that helps with digestion. Your gallbladder stores
it until you need it to digest fat. Then your gallbladder
pushes the bile into tubes called bile ducts.
They carry the bile to your small intestine.
Different diseases can block the bile ducts and cause
a problem with the flow of bile. Gallstones are one
of the most common causes of blocked bile ducts.
Blocked bile ducts may also result from infection, cancer
or to internal scar tissue. Scarring can block the bile
ducts, which can lead to liver failure.
A rare form of bile duct disease called biliary
atresia occurs in infants. It is the most common
reason for liver transplants in children in the United
States.
