Explanation:
If the “drainpipe” at the bottom of the liver, or the common bile duct, remains blocked, a buildup of bilirubin in the bloodstream can lead to jaundice. This blockage can also lead to bacteria backing up into the liver, which can cause a severe infection known as ascending cholangitis.

If the “drainpipe” at the bottom of the liver, or the common bile duct, remains blocked, a buildup of bilirubin in the bloodstream can lead to jaundice. This blockage can also lead to bacteria backing up into the liver, which can cause a severe infection known as ascending cholangitis. And the blockage is life threatning.
