A member asked:

With a lesion already identified, bile duct dilation and pain, does this sound malignant? total beta hcg is high, monocytes-1.1. anion gap-10

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: Hcg elevates in germ cell tumors and pregnancy. You did not mention a location for the "lesion" perhaps you are just pregnant and have a stone stuck in the biliary tract. If you are positive you are not pregnant, then i would be concerned about possible malignancy.
