If a gallstone becomes stuck in either the duct leading from the gallbladder or the common bile duct which is further away from the gallbladder, the obstruction can cause damage to the liver and also possibly the pancreas. If the stone is removed and flow is returned then usually there is no ongoing damage to the liver or the pancreas. This is why it is important to have gallstones evaluated.
