Hello. With the question "Can a gallbladder stone about 10-13mm fall into the neck of the gallbladder, can the common bile duct cause biliary obstruction?" The doctor would like to answer as follows:
You have gallstones and the possibility of falling into the neck of the gallbladder or the common bile duct causing biliary obstruction is yes. Therefore, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment of gallstones under the advice of a specialist.
You can also register for an examination at a hospital of Vinmec Health System to be consulted by a qualified doctor. Hope to have the opportunity to meet you to discuss more. Best regards.
