What is cholelithiasis with obstruction?

Symptoms and complications of cholelithiasis result when stones obstruct the cystic duct, bile ducts or both. Temporary obstruction of the cystic duct (as when a stone lodges in cystic duct before the duct dilates and the stone returns to gallbladder) results in biliary pain but is usually short-lived.

Is choledocholithiasis an obstruction?

Choledocholithiasis, also known as common bile duct stones, refers to an obstruction of the biliary tract caused by gallstones in the common bile duct. The common bile duct is the tube that carries bile from the liver to the small intestine, and it is formed by the union of the common hepatic duct and the cystic duct.

How does choledocholithiasis occur?

Choledocholithiasis is the presence of at least one gallstone in the common bile duct, the small tube that carries bile from the gallbladder to the intestine. Although risk factors include a history of gallstones, choledocholithiasis can also occur in people who have had their gallbladder removed.

Cholelithiasis and cholecystitis both affect your gallbladder. Cholelithiasis occurs when gallstones develop. If these gallstones block the bile duct from the gallbladder to the small intestine, bile can build up in the gallbladder and cause inflammation. This inflammation is called cholecystitis.Feb 16, 2021

What is the difference between cholangitis and choledocholithiasis?

Is cholangitis the same as choledocholithiasis?

Choledocholithiasis is the presence of stones in bile ducts; the stones can form in the gallbladder or in the ducts themselves. These stones cause biliary colic, biliary obstruction, gallstone pancreatitis, or cholangitis (bile duct infection and inflammation).

What is the organ that stores bile?

Your gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ under your liver. It stores bile, a fluid made by your liver to digest fat. As your stomach and intestines digest food, your gallbladder releases bile through a tube called the common bile duct. The duct connects your gallbladder and liver to your small intestine.
