Biliary surgery is a procedure that involves the operation of the common bile duct, which connects the liver to the gastrointestinal tract. The bile duct transports bile, which helps in the breakdown of lipids in our diet so that they can be absorbed by the body. Biliary surgery may be required if the flow of bile from the liver is obstructed by a stone, blockage or tumor.
