| | Gallstones |
 | | If gallstones are in the bile ducts, the physician (usually a gastroenterologist) may use endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) to locate and remove them before or during the gallbladder surgery. |  | | However, because the bile isn't stored in the gallbladder, it flows into the small intestine more frequently, causing diarrhea in about 1 percent of people. |  | | Nonsurgical approaches are used only in special situations—such as when a patient has a serious medical condition preventing surgery—and only for cholesterol stones. |

| | Bile duct - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The top half of the common bile duct is associated with the liver, while the bottom half of the common bile duct is associated with the pancreas, through which it passes on its way to the intestine. |  | | This condition is called jaundice and the skin and eyes become yellow from the accumulated bile in the blood. |  | | Jaundice is commonly caused by conditions such as pancreatic cancer, which causes blockage of the bile duct passing through the cancerous portion of the pancreas; cholangiocarcinoma, blockage by a stone in patients with gallstones; and from scarring after injury to the bile duct during gallbladder removal. |

| | Bile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Besides its digestive function, bile serves as the route of excretion for the hemoglobin breakdown product (bilirubin) which gives bile its colour. |  | | This mixture, applied to textiles a few hours before washing, is a traditional and rather effective method for removing various kinds of tough stains. |  | | Emulsified droplets then are organized into many micelles which increases absorption. |

| | Extrahepatic Bile Duct Cancer |
 | | From a clinical and practical point of view, extrahepatic bile duct cancers can be considered to be localized (resectable) or unresectable. |  | | Most cancers are staged following surgery and pathologic examination of the resected specimen. |  | | Radiation therapy (external-beam radiation with or without brachytherapy), however, has been reported to improve local control. |

| | Gall Bladder and Bile |
 | | A muscle surrounding the gallbladder contracts, and a little bile is squirted into the intestines. |  | | Fatty foods entering the duodenum stimulates the production of the hormone, CCK (cholecystokinin), which in turn, stimulates the smooth muscle of the gallbladder to contract, ejecting bile into the cystic duct, on into the common bile duct, and then into the duodenum. |  | | If the bile is unable to leave the gallbladder because of a blockage (such as a gallstone), the stool color will change to gray or clay-colored. |

 | | In an enterohepatic circulation process bile salts and other substances enter the lumen of the GI tract in the duodenum and are reabsorbed further down the intestine into the blood. |  | | The duodenum accepts material from the stomach at a relatively constant caloric rate such that highly caloric chyme enters the duodenum at a slower rate. |  | | Most digestion and absorption occurs in the upper two thirds (duodenum and jejunum) of the almost nine foot long small intestine and removal of water and bile salts occurs in the lower one third (ileum). |

 | | Bile plays an important role in the intestinal absorption of fats. |  | | Bile passes out of the liver via the bile duct where it is stored in the gallbladder and released in response to a fat-containing meal. |  | | Bile is secreted by the liver and contains cholesterol, bile salts, and waste products such as bilirubin. |

| | Bile Duct |
 | | When this happens, the bile flows into the gallbladder and is stored there. |  | | Within the liver lobules, there are many fine "bile canals" that receive secretions from the hepatic cells. |  | | The canals of neighboring lobules unite to form larger ducts, and these converge to become the "hepatic ducts." They merge, in turn, to form the "common hepatic duct." The "common bile duct" is formed by the union of the common hepatic and the cystic ducts. |

| | Bile reflux - MayoClinic.com |
 | | Normally, a ring-like muscle at the outlet of your stomach (pyloric valve) prevents bile from entering the stomach. |  | | If this valve doesn't work properly, bile and bile acids can back up (reflux) causing inflammation in the stomach (gastritis) and esophagus (esophagitis). |  | | Bile travels to your small intestine through thin tubes (bile ducts). |

 | | Bile contains mostly cholesterol, bile acids (also called bile salts), and bilirubin (a breakdown product of hemoglobin). |  | | Bile also contains very small amounts of excreted copper and other metals. |  | | It facilitates digestion by breaking down fats into fatty acids, which can be absorbed by the digestive tract. |
