I have been diagnosed with an enlarged extra hepatic bile duct (11mm). I have had my gallbladder out with many stones some 30 years ago. I have no symptoms and the enlarged bile duct was found on MRI for a back problem. Should I be worried? Going for an ultrasound in a few days.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, conditioned must be confirmed and in absence of clinical symptoms it is nothing to worry, why the extra bile duct was not found when bladder was removed? it is not possible that the bile duct (Extra) come in existent later on hope this information helps.
