What causes liver and gallstones?

An improper diet may cause many diseases, and liver diseases are particularly painful. The liver is the most important detoxification organ in the human body, and intrahepatic bile duct stones are the most common among hepatobiliary stones. Pay attention to the amount of food you eat and don't overeat. Pay more attention to rest and never stay up late, as staying up late is not conducive to recovery from illness. Eating more nutritious and stone-fighting foods will help with the excretion of stones, so you don't have to worry too much.

Intrahepatic bile duct stones are almost all bilirubin calcium stones, which are composed of bilirubin, cholesterol, fatty acids and calcium. It can be bilateral intrahepatic bile duct stones or limited to the left or right liver. Intrahepatic bile duct stones are more common in the left liver than in the right liver.

Intrahepatic bile duct stones coexist with intrahepatic bile duct stenosis and dilatation, resulting in bile retention. Stenosis can be seen in both hepatic ducts, more commonly on the left side, and can also be seen at the confluence of the left and right hepatic ducts at the portal of the liver. In a few cases, there are only intrahepatic bile duct stones without bile duct stenosis.
