Abstract:
This study done to characterize the morphology of biliary confluence angle in Sudanese population in normal patient and in patient with obstructive jaundice.
The Characterization of biliary confluence angle may be has a correlation with age, here is a data for morphology of biliary confluence angle in Sudanese population.
Retrospective, Descriptive analytical study to evaluate the Characterization of billary confluence angle in 50 normal and 50 abnormal (patient with obstructive jaundice), in Sudanese patients using Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography, measuring the size of the angle and detecting if there is a correlation between the biliary confluence angle with age, also the right and left hepatic ducts had measured in both normal and abnormal patients to know if there is a relation between there length and biliary confluence angle at the same level in Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography. Data statically analyzed using statical package for social sciences SPSS.
There is a weak relation between the billary confluence angle and age, when there is a relation between the billary confluence angle and age in patients with obstructive jaundice.
This study shows the relation in the age of patients with obstructive jaundice with biliary confluence angle is higher than the relation with normal patients, especially with adult patient.
