A member asked:

Is common bile duct stenosis the same as choledocholithiasis? what causes a stenosis of the bile duct?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

A "stenotic" common bile duct can be caused by inflammation of the bile duct by gallstones . See a general surgeon or GI specialist for guidance, especially if a cholecystectomy has been performed. Common bile duct stents can treat this, which can treat abnormal liver function resulting from stenosis.
