Advanced Minimally Invasive Care for Bile Duct & Gallbladder Disorders

Biliary tract diseases affect the bile ducts, gallbladder, and related structures responsible for transporting bile from the liver to the intestine. Conditions affecting the biliary system can lead to pain, infection, jaundice, and digestive problems if left untreated.

Modern Interventional Radiology offers minimally invasive, image-guided procedures that help diagnose and treat biliary tract diseases with precision, reduced discomfort, and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery.

What Are Biliary Tract Diseases?

The biliary tract includes the bile ducts, gallbladder, and associated channels that carry bile, which helps digest fats. Diseases of the biliary system may occur due to blockage, infection, stones, inflammation, or tumors.

Common Biliary Tract Conditions

  • Bile duct obstruction
  • Gallstones in bile ducts
  • Biliary strictures
  • Cholangitis (bile duct infection)
  • Bile leaks
  • Malignant biliary obstruction
  • Gallbladder inflammation
  • Pancreaticobiliary tumors

Common Symptoms

  • Yellowing of skin and eyes (Jaundice)
  • Abdominal pain
  • Fever and chills
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Dark urine
  • Pale-colored stools
  • Loss of appetite
  • Itching
  • Unexplained weight loss

Advanced Minimally Invasive Treatments

Percutaneous Transhepatic Biliary Drainage (PTBD)

A minimally invasive procedure used to drain blocked bile ducts and relieve jaundice.

Biliary Stenting

Placement of a stent inside the bile duct to restore normal bile flow in cases of obstruction or narrowing.

Image-Guided Drainage Procedures

Drainage of infected fluid collections or abscesses using ultrasound or CT guidance.

Cholangiography

Advanced imaging procedure used to evaluate bile duct abnormalities and blockages.

Tumor-Related Biliary Interventions

Minimally invasive procedures for managing bile duct obstruction caused by cancers of the liver, pancreas, or biliary system.
