This video is from my patient Lucy who came in for a dental today. She has a history of glomerular disease and an adrenal mass. She has recently had a mild increase in ALT. Is this just sludge, or should I start her on ursodiol right away? She is clinically doing as well as she usually does.

Emerging mucocele – treat
Emerging mucocele – treat with ursodiol and monitor. May be associated with the adrenal mass if functional.
