Intrahepatic bile duct stones do not heal on their own and can only be cured by surgical treatment.
Some intrahepatic bile duct stones that are asymptomatic and do not cause discomfort to the patient, such as stationary intrahepatic bile duct stones, usually do not require any treatment and can be monitored through regular checkups.
There are some intrahepatic bile duct stones that can cause bile duct infection or bile duct stenosis, etc., and the patient will have symptoms such as chills, fever, etc., or even cause more serious liver abscess or bile duct cancer, then surgical treatments such as hepatectomy, choledochotomy and stone removal need to be considered.
Patients with intrahepatic bile duct stones should have regular meals, avoid overfeeding, exercise more and avoid sitting for a long time. In addition, patients should also go to the hospital for regular checkups to understand the changes of the stones.
