Everything about The Biliary Tree totally explained
The
biliary tree is the common
anatomic term for the path by which
bile is secreted by the liver on its way to the
duodenum, or small intestine, of most members of the
mammal family. It is referred to as a tree because it begins with many small branches which end in the common bile duct, sometimes referred to as the trunk of the biliary tree. The duct is present along with the branches of the
hepatic artery and the
portal vein forming the central axis of the
portal triad. Bile flows in opposite direction to that of the blood present in the other two channels. Pressure inside in the biliary tree raise in
gall stone and lead to cirrhosis of liver.
Path
The path is as follows:
Bile canaliculi >> canals of Hering >> bile ductules (in portal tracts) >> intrahepatic bile ducts >> left and right hepatic ducts >>
merge to form >>
common hepatic duct >>
exits liver and joins >>
cystic duct (from
gall bladder) >>
forming >>
common bile duct >>
joins with >>
pancreatic duct >>
forming >>
ampulla of Vater >>
