PY - 2017 T2 - Comprehensive Pediatric Hospital Medicine, 2e AB - The biliary tree includes the ducts that drain bile from the liver and coalesce into the right and left hepatic ducts, the cystic duct and gallbladder, and the common bile duct that drains bile from the gallbladder through the pancreas and into the duodenum. Biliary tract diseases can present at any age and have become increasingly recognized in pediatric practice as diagnostic tests have improved. Some diseases of the biliary system are associated with liver disease and others are specific to the biliary tract alone.
