Dr. Peng Xiaodong
Benign bile duct tumors generally present with abdominal pain of varying degrees, mostly manifested as distending pain in the right upper quadrant. These tumors can also cause abnormal bilirubin secretion, making patients prone to jaundice. Some patients may experience indigestion symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. If benign bile duct tumors lead to discomfort, timely examination and treatment are recommended. In most cases, radical surgical resection is performed to alleviate symptoms.
