Your doctor can do thinking, memory, and language tests to see if you have MCI. He or she also may suggest that you see a specialist for more tests. Because MCI may be an early sign of Alzheimerâs disease, itâs really important to see your doctor or specialist every 6 to 12 months.
Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration: In this procedure, stones in the bile duct are removed by laparoscopic techniques. In patients with gallstones small stones can pass from the gallbladder into the bile duct. Stones in the bile duct can cause obstruction leading to the development of jaundice and pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). The treatment is removal of the gallbladder.
Bile ducts from the liver and the gallbladder join together to form the common bile duct. This duct drains into the small bowel and delivers bile to this portion of the small bowel known as the duodenum. Bile helps in the breakdown of undigested food and also gives color to bowel motions. Whenever a blockage occurs in the bile duct, the bile ducts become enlarged or dilated.
