No. Except that they cannot go into the duodenum, as your alimentary channel is connected just distal to the pylorus, where the duodenum used to connect. That means, practically speaking, that if your bile duct is blocked, then can no longer get to it endoscopically through the stomach. >Is it something we can do or not? Thanks for any insight. Can do. And " in sight " is what endoscopy is all about! --Steve -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
