Could Severe Pain In Abdomen Be A Result Of Obstruction In Duodenum As Per The CT Scan?
Hello i have just a severe pain in right upper abdomen and i go the clinic and from their some test are written by dr. in my endoscopy report says the obstruction in duodenum due to extrinsic compression amd in ct scan report says cholestatitis in the common bile duct.please tell me what is the the appropriate treatmentyof this disease please tell me as soon as possible.
External compression on the duodenum can be due to varying causes like Pancreatic carcinoma,Cholangiocarcinoma,etc.The cause for the compression needs to be found before proceeding further treatment. Based on the cause management can be planned which can be surgery.
Cholestasis is blockage of flow of bile in the common bile duct and can present as Jaundice,Pale coloured Stool,Itching over body,etc.
I will advice you to consult your surgeon at the earliest for physical examination and necessary investigations.
Hope i answered your question.
Wish you a healthy life.
