Brief Answer:
? Cholangio Carcinoma

Detailed Answer:
Dear Mr.....
Thanks for posing this question but you have not given full details about the problem. I understand your mother has jaundice which is due to gall bladder Cancer or bile duct cancer.. if the duct is blocked the possibility of stunting has to be explored ..initially the best treatment is surgical resection if possible to be followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy. if surgery is ruled out only salvage chemotherapy can be tried. As the disease progresses jaundice is likely to increase. The possiblity of cure depends on the stage of the disease.

Brief Answer:
Chlangoi carcinoma

Detailed Answer:
Dear Thanks for reverting.
It appears she has obstructive jaundice and stunting could relieve it. This should be followed by TACE Chemotherapy. These are temporary measures and will work for some time but complete cure is unlikely. Some centres even Image guided Radiotherapy can be tried to shrink the tumour .
