Obstructive jaundice is a condition that develops in association with cholestasis syndrome: a process of violation of the outflow of bile from the hepatocyte into the duodenum. Early identification of the causes of violation of the outflow of bile helps to reduce the risk of complications, as well as reduce the length of the patient's hospitalization. Invasive diagnostic methods are associated with an increased risk of complications and the need for general anesthesia. The widespread use of non-invasive examination methods allows surgeon to effectively and safely identify the etiological factors of obstructive jaundice and develop a further plan for invasive additional examination and surgical treatment.
