All of the following symptoms are found in jaundice except

  • disorders of hepato-biliary system

  • abnormal secretion of pancreatic and gastric juices

  • bile duct obstruction

  • anaemia

Solution

B.

abnormal secretion of pancreatic and gastric juices

Juandice is a medical condition with yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes, arising from excess of the pigment bilirubin and typically caused by obstruction of the bile duct, by liver disease, or by excessive breakdown of red blood cells.

In jaundice, there is no abnormal secretion of pancreatic and gastric juices seen. Pancreatic and gastric secretions remain unaffected during obstructive and haemolytic jaundice.
