Obstructive jaundice is a type of jaundice caused by a clogged bile duct or pancreatic duct, which does not allow the passage of bile into the intestine. Here the blocking or narrowing of the ducts may happen due to pancreatic cysts or cancers, swollen lymph nodes in the area, the presence of gall stones, or more. The symptoms of this condition are similar to regular jaundice, and one may require surgery to relieve the obstructions from the duct to cure jaundice.
