Intrahepatic bile ducts in the left lobe of the liver drain into the left hepatic duct, and the bile ducts in the liver's right lobe, drain into the right hepatic duct. The common hepatic duct is formed when these two hepatic ducts converge to form one larger duct. This converged hepatic...

and while it is inside our stomach and inside our duodenum, it stimulates liver to produce more bile, and it stimulates gallbladder (if you still have it) to squeeze itself and to empy its content into the duodenum. But, after the oil have been digested, and fatty...
The tumor can occur anywhere along the biliary "tree" and is divided into three subtypes based on where it starts. The intrahepatic subtype starts in the bile duct inside the liver and typically appears as a mass in the liver, which may affect the organ's function. The second subtype, cal...
The bile ducts are tube-like structures where bile passes from the liver to the gallbladder and down into the intestines. Inside the liver, they are called intrahepatic ducts; when located just outside the liver, these ducts are called perihilar ducts. There is also the common bile duct, ...

Investigations and diagnosis: At admission ultrasound demonstrated a swollen head of the pancreas, dilated pancreatic and intrahepatic bile ducts and peripancreatic fluid. At upper gastrointestinal endoscopy a 10 mm bleeding ulcer was identified, which histologically proved to be epitheloid cell-containing...
