If glutamyltransferase 180 is caused by physiological factors such as fatigue and alcohol consumption, it is generally not considered serious, and the indicator can be reduced to normal after a period of time of lifestyle adjustment. If due to diseases such as biliary tract infections, obstruction caused by stones in the liver and bile ducts, tumors in the liver and bile ducts, as well as the active stage of viral hepatitis, various types of cirrhosis in the period of loss of compensation, then glutamyltransferase 180 U/L is considered to be a relatively more serious condition, which must be formally treated. If the test glutamyl transferase 180, it is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible, under the guidance of the doctor to clarify the cause to give the appropriate measures.
