[Surgical treatment of patients with cholestatic hepatitis]

The experience with treatment of 86 patients with cholestatic form of hepatitis has been summarized. The operative intervention included drainage of the extrahepatic bile ducts, denervation of the hepatoduodenal ligament, marginal hepatic resection. In ineffective conservative therapy, the patients should be operated on at the early period. When establishing the indications for the operation, the functional state of hepatocytes should be considered.
