Pancreaticobiliary Disorders

Pancreaticobiliary disorders involve problems with the pancreas and bile ducts, which are responsible for digestion and waste elimination. These conditions include conditions like gallstones, inflammation, tumors, or congenital abnormalities that obstruct or damage these organs. Such issues can cause symptoms like abdominal pain, jaundice (yellowing of the skin), nausea, and digestive difficulties. Diagnosis often involves imaging tests, blood work, and sometimes endoscopy. Treatment depends on the specific disorder and may include medication, procedures, or surgery. Prompt diagnosis and management are essential to prevent complications and maintain digestive health.
