**Core Concept**
Hemobilia refers to the presence of blood in the bile or bile ducts, often due to trauma, liver disease, or iatrogenic causes. The triad of hemobilia consists of triad symptoms that help identify this condition.

- Hematemesis (vomiting blood) is a common symptom due to the presence of blood in the bile or bile ducts.
- Melena (black, tarry stools) is another symptom of hemobilia due to the passage of blood into the gastrointestinal tract.
