Answer:
The main function of bile in digestion is emulsification of fat - that is to break it down into smaller fat globules for digestion and absorption. In case of complete obstruction of the common bile duct, this will be hampered. So such a person will pass stools with high fat content.
Most common cause of obstruction is gallstone. And the person will experience abdominal pain especially after eating a fatty meal as the body tries to push the bile through the blocked duct by stimulating the contraction of its walls.
