[Clinical significance of the functional and structural changes in the intestines in chronic cholecystitis]
Abstract:
The aim of the study was to determine the clinical significance of intestinal functional and structural alterations in biliary pathology. Clinical, endoscopic, morphological, and morphometric methods were used. The subjects of the study were 62 patients with functional gall bladder disorder, 90 patients with chronic calculous cholecystitis, and 90 patients who had undergone cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis. The study found that biliary lithogenesis was associated with intestinal dysbiosis, changes in the qualitative density of erythrocytes immunopositive to motilin and substance P, and inflammatory changes in the intestines. After cholecystectomy, changes in intestinal microecology progressed, inflammatory and atrophic changes in the intestinal mucosa appeared or deepened, the qualitative density of erythrocytes immunopositive to motilin and substance P decreased, and colon polyps appeared more frequently.
