Total bile acid reaches 40μmol/L is considered high, has seriously exceeded the normal value of total bile acid, we recommend that the patient improve the liver function, abdominal ultrasound and other tests to clarify the cause of the disease.
Total bile acid is a product of cholesterol decomposition, the normal value of total bile acid in human body is 0.1~10.0μmol/L. Generally speaking, the increase and decrease of total bile acid is closely related to the function of the liver, when the function of the liver decreases, the metabolism of bile acid is impaired, and the concentration of total bile acid in the blood will be increased.
When the total bile acid reaches 40 μmol/L, which exceeds the normal value, it is considered that there exists liver damaging diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, bile duct obstruction, etc. It is necessary to carry out liver function, abdominal ultrasound and other examinations to clarify the cause of the disease.
Liver is an important digestive organ of human body, once damage occurs, it has great influence on the quality of life. It is recommended to go to the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of regular hospitals as soon as possible, and actively cooperate with doctors to conduct examinations, identify the causes of the disease and standardize the treatment.
