Can Results Showing Dilated Bile Duct A Cause Of Concern?
Hello, I recently had ultrasound after a physicial, to check abdominal aneurysm . It showed a dilated bile duct, and was sent for a mrcp. It came back as : mild dilatation of the proper hepatic duct with tapering of the common bile duct becoming near string-like at the level of the ampulla. This raises the possibility of ampullary stenosis. I now have appointment coming up with a gastroenteritis. I guess next is a ercp? I have some stomach pain every once in awhile with no other symptoms, this was just caught because of other reasons. GB been removed for about 10 yrs now. From what I read I'm concerned about cancer.
yes this is cause of concern there can be involvement of liver or ducts with fibrous tissue benign tissue act the exact pathology can be found in investigations
