Total bilirubin of 80μmol/L is serious for adults, and may be caused by biliary tract diseases, liver diseases, blood system diseases and so on.
1. Biliary tract diseases: such as cholelithiasis, cholecystitis, etc. Total bilirubin is high due to the inability of direct bilirubin to be excreted into the intestines.
2. Liver diseases, such as acute jaundice hepatitis, acute yellow hepatic necrosis, cirrhosis, etc., which cause high direct and indirect bilirubin, leading to elevated total bilirubin.
3. Blood system diseases: such as autoimmune hemolysis, hemolytic anemia and other diseases can lead to elevated total bilirubin.
In addition to the above causes, diseases such as burns and malaria can lead to significant elevation of total bilirubin. It is recommended that patients with i total bilirubin of 80 μmol/L should seek medical attention as soon as possible to clarify the cause of the disease and treat it as soon as possible so as to avoid delaying the disease.
