Dear sir
The cause for increased diameter of common bile duct is due to stones obstructing the lumen which causes blockage of the duct causing its enlargement.
Even you have reported the problem of pelvicalyceal stone formation, which can cause this. The best way to solve it is by undergoing ultrasound examination and to do laser lithotripsy.
Thanks
