Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. Thank you for your query. I am Dr. Rommstein, I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can.
If this is tumor which causes blockage then you should consider surgical procedure of doing bypass between bile duct and bowel so you should discuss it with surgeon. ERCP shold be done to place stent into bile duct.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
