Biliary dyskinesia: mechanisms and management

G Bolen, N B Javitt

    Hospital Practice (Hospital Ed.)
    |June 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Biliary dyskinesia, a functional biliary disorder, explains gallbladder-related pain without stones. Diagnostic procedures are improving our understanding and clinical basis for this condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Hepatology
    • Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders

    Background:

    • Biliary colic without gallstones or gallbladder presents a diagnostic challenge.
    • Functional biliary disorders are increasingly recognized.
    • The pathophysiology of biliary dyskinesia requires further elucidation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the concept of functional biliary disease.
    • To discuss the diagnostic basis for biliary dyskinesia.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing evidence on functional biliary disorders.
    • Analysis of investigative procedures for biliary dyskinesia.

    Main Results:

    • Growing evidence supports the existence of purely functional biliary disease.
    • Investigative procedures offer a clinical basis for diagnosing biliary dyskinesia.

    Conclusions:

    • Biliary dyskinesia is a functional disorder explaining biliary pain without stones.
    • Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms involved.
