Suggest treatment for high sugar level with bile duct dialation
Patient: I'm 25 years old and in the past 4 months after a acne medication treatment I find out that my blood sugar is high . My doctor send me for and abdominal  ultra sound and he found a 9MM common bile duct dilatation .i was told that's is really weird that someone my age will have such thing. I was advised by my doctor to go for an MRI to see the abdomen better . My concern is how can this be taken Care of and what  are the procedure to get it removed if any and what action  should be taken because at this point my doctor is not really telling me  much and I'm really scared . Doctor: Hello,Dilatation of the CBD suggests obstruction in the distal end of thCBD (common bile duct) this could because several different causes like present since birth (choledochal cyst)stones. Pancreatic disease, nodules/tumors or rarely a normal finding. I would take this step by step. First get the MRI with MRCP done .This will help to identify the cause of the dialted CBD. Once this is done further line of management can be planned.Hope this helpsDo get back in case you have further queriesRegardsDr Samir Patil
