    The bile ducts are tubes that move bile — a substance that helps with digestion — from the liver to the small intestine. Primary biliary cholangitis is a chronic disease in which the bile ducts in the liver become injured and inflamed and are eventually destroyed.

    Primary Biliary Cholangitis falls under the Liver Health category.
