No, it is not the only reason. This procedure is performed many times a year for various reasons. For example I had this surgery performed after an elective procedure. My common bile duct was cliped during a galblader surgery causing the bile that would normally flow freely to the stomach... too back up into my liver. The procedure went well and I recoverd completely after about a week in house post-op care and a couple weeks of taking it easy at home. All is well...
