GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -When the liver cells secrete bile, it is collected by a system of ducts that flow from the liver through the right and left hepatic ducts. These ducts ultimately drain into the common hepatic duct. The common hepatic duct then joins with the cystic duct from the gallbladder to form the common bile duct.

Detailed explanation-2: -The cystic duct from the gallbladder joins the common hepatic duct to form the common bile duct. The common bile duct passes through the pancreas and ends in the small intestine. Bile is made by the liver and stored in the gallbladder.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bile is stored in the gallbladder and flows through the cystic duct and the common bile duct into the small intestine when food is being digested.

Detailed explanation-4: -The cystic duct connects the gallbladder (a small organ that stores bile) to the common bile duct. The common bile duct passes through the pancreas before it empties into the first part of the small intestine (duodenum).

Detailed explanation-5: -A tube that carries bile from the liver. The common hepatic duct starts where the right and left hepatic ducts join outside the liver and ends where a duct from the gallbladder joins it to form the common bile duct. It is part of the biliary system.
