[Gallbladder motor function studied by modified infusion cholescintigraphy method after gastric and duodenal surgery]

Estimation of the gallbladder (GB) motility disorders after gastric surgery has not yet been assessed because of the shortage of the reliable diagnostic methods. The aim of the study is introduction, modification and establishment of the infusion cholescintigraphy into clinical practice and its performance in the groups of patients with gastric resection (RVBI i RVBII), total gastrectomy and patients after gastroplasty. Obtained data produced information about motility disorders caused by billateral truncal vagotomy, lack of the food transit through duodenum and if the motility disorders are the same in different time periods after operation. In groups of patients without truncal vagotomy (RVBI and RVBII), minor motility disorders are registered in comparison to the groups after truncal vagotomy. In the period of 6 months after surgery, higher motility disorders are registered in the group of patients with total gastrectomy, while after 9-12 months GB motility completely recovers. Groups with preserved transit of food through duodenum (RVBI and gastroplasty), has minor motility disorders in comparison to the group without transit of food through duodenum (RVBII and total gastrectomy). By introducing infusion cholescintigraphy, reliable method for the GB motility assessment is obtained.
