Brief Answer:
Could be possible Bile duct Inflammation.Require HIDA scan

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir.

I understand your query and concern.

Any undiagnosed source of infection usually points to bile ducts and gall bladder.

This can possibly be diagnosed through HIDA scan.

Bile duct infections in the absence of gall stones are pretty common in renal dialysed patients.

Post your further queries,if any.
Thank you.
