Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Chinese medicine treatment of cholelithiasis. Methods We searched electronic databases including MEDLINE (1966 to Feb. 2009), EMbase (1974 to Feb. 2009), The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2008), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM, 1978 to Feb. 2009), CJFD (CNKI, 1994 to Feb. 2009), the Chinese Scientific and Technical Journals database (VIP, 1989 to Feb. 2009), and a database of Chinese biomedical journals (CMCC, 1994 to Feb. 2009). At the same time, we searched references of the included studies. Metaanalysis was performed using RevMan 5 if there was no significant heterogeneity. We described the date which could not be combined. Results A total of 18 randomized controlled trials involving 2 276 patients were included. According to measurement indicators and interventions, subgroup analysis was performed. Efficacy was reported in 10 studies, which showed that part of proprietary Chinese medicines had a higher efficiency for cholelithiasis. Gallbladder emptying index and the trend of bile into the stone were compared in 5 studies, suggesting that the bile of proprietary Chinese medicines reduced the stone index, which eased the bile tendency to rock. Three studies reported the rate of cholecystokinin. Metaanalysis results suggested that the difference was significant. Two studies reported adverse drug reactions (ADRs), such as epigastric discomfort and diarrhea. Most ADRs were slight, and could be self relieved. Conclusion Results suggest that Chinese medicines produce effects on clinical symptoms of cholelithiasis, gallbladder function and reduce the trend of bile into stones. However, the therapeutic effects for long-term are rarely reported. The conclusion needs further verification due to low methodological quality and apparent heterogeneity.
Objective To investigate the recurrence of hepatolithiasis and reoperation and their relation to the location of intrahepatic stone. MethodsTwo hundred and twentysix patients of hepatolithiasis operated upon in the period of 1990-1995 were retrospectively analysed.ResultsAmong those patients, there were 101 patients (44.7%) had previous operation for the gallstones diseases including cholecystectomy for gallbladder stones (n=21, 20.8%), choledocholithotomy (n=72, 71.3%),liver segmentectomy (n=6， 5.9%), and choledochojejunostomy (n=2, 2.0%). The operative mortality was 5.0% for the reoperation group and none for the first time operation for hepatolithiasis.Conclusion Although the liver resection is an ideal surgical method to eradicate the diseased lesion and to minimize the malignant changes especially in primary hepatolithiasis (type I, or IE)， choledochojejunostomy is only recommended for the secondary type (type IE or IE) where possible. In the management of hepatolithiasis, the complete information of biliary tract is needed for the choice of surgical methods.

肝脏移植、心脏移植及肾脏移植等已广泛开展，大批受者长期存活。本文现就这组特殊人群在移植术后患胆道结石病的机理及其处理原则介绍如下。1器官移植受体胆石病的发生机理肝移植术后胆管结石与胆泥形成并引起胆道梗阻可随时发生。除了明确的结石外，胆泥形成胆管铸形并广泛分布于肝内胆管也有报道。胆管粘膜损害、胆管梗阻、移植肝的冷、热缺血、感染及胆固醇过饱和等都在胆管结石形成过程中发挥作用，但胆管梗阻可能是肝移植术后胆管结石形成的最重要因素［1］。胆管结石和胆泥形成的患者，绝大多数都伴有胆管狭窄，这个狭窄可以发生在胆管胆管吻合口和胆管空肠吻合口，也可发生在非吻合口处的胆管。胆管内异物如T型管或内支撑管也可作为结石形成的核心。除了这些引起胆汁淤积的物理学原因外，环孢素A（CsA）在胆石发生中也起了作用［2］： 它可抑制胆汁分泌，促进胆汁淤积，而FK506（普乐可复）似乎没有这方面的副作用。此外，肝移植受者胆汁中胆固醇呈过饱和状态，且T管引流及胆酸池的减少还加重这种状态。目前还不清楚胆道重建方式对胆道结石形成有没有影响。但从理论上讲，胆肠吻合会增加肠源性细菌进入胆道的机会，从而导致胆红素去结合化，并进一步形成色素石。但到底是胆管对端吻合还是胆肠吻合后更易形成结石，目前尚无详尽研究。
目的:探讨腹腔镜胆囊切除术(LC)与内镜十二指肠乳头括约肌切开术(EST)联合应用治疗胆囊结石合并胆总管结石的临床效果。方法:回顾性分析我院开展的LC联合EST治疗胆囊结石合并胆总管结石76例,其中56例先行EST后行LC,20例先行LC后行ERCP/EST。结果:本组全部治愈,先行EST组56例,3例并发胰腺炎,3例出血,2例再发胆总管结石,先行LC组20例行EST11例,6例取石后未做括约肌切开,3例结石自行掉入肠道,1例出现胆道感染,1例胰腺炎,无出血及穿孔。结论:内镜治疗胆囊结石继发胆总管结石具有创伤小、效果好、并发症少、恢复快的的特点;先作EST可解除胆道梗阻、减轻炎症,并为LC创造条件,选择性先行LC后可减轻创伤,甚至不必做EST。
目的 探讨对Mirizzi综合征实施临床合理有效的手术方法。方法 自1990年1月至2003年12月期间，我院采用经肝放置胆道支撑引流管治疗Ⅱ、Ⅲ型Mirizzi综合征21例,胆道支撑引流管放置6个月以上，并行胆道造影检查。结果 所有患者恢复良好,胆道造影检查见胆道通畅后拔除支撑引流管，随访2～10年,无并发症发生。结论 经肝放置胆道支撑引流管治疗Ⅱ、Ⅲ型Mirizzi综合征,是保持胆道生理功能完整的有效方法。
目的:探讨门静脉高压症(Portal hypertension,PHT)合并胆石症的合理处理方式。方法:回顾分析2003年9月于2008年9月64例PHT合并胆石症患者不同方式手术治疗的结果。根据手术方式不同将64例患者分为三组。A组:仅行胆道手术(n=20);B组:在行PHT手术的同时行胆道手术(n=20);C组:在行PHT手术时对胆囊或胆道结石未作处理(n=24)。结果:死亡率A组10%,B组28.5%,C组4.3%。并发症:A组40%,B组70%,C组25%。结论:PHT合并胆石症无论仅行胆道手术或同期行PHT手术和胆道手术,手术死亡率和术后并发症均显著增加,尤以同期手术为明显。根据患者情况选择正确的手术方式,可有效降低手术风险。
Objective To evaluate the methodological and reporting quality of randomized controlled trials involving traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of cholelithiasis. Methods We searched CNKI (1994 to 2007), CMCC (1994 to 2007), VIP (1989 to 2007), MEDLINE (1966 to April 2007) and The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2006). Data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs were extracted by two reviewers independently. The methodological quality of included trials was assessed by using the quality assessment criteria recommended by The Cochrane Collaboration, and the reporting quality was assessed by using the CONSORT for TCM checklist. Results Seventeen studies including 16 RCTs and one quasi-RCT were included. The methodological and reporting qualities of included studies were generally low. All studies were graded C. The highest score evaluated by the CONSORT for TCM checklist was 18. Conclusion The quality of RCTs and quasi-RCTs involving traditional Chinese medicine for cholelithiasis is generally low, with a high risk of biases. The reporting of these trials is also incomplete, which would affect a reader’s understanding and evaluation of the validity, importance and applicability of the study results. Therefore, new randomized controlled trials of high quality are required to provide reliable evidence.
Eighty two cases of acute gallstone pancreatitis on early operation are reported and the significance of the clinical picture and pathology are analysed. The data showed that gallstone was found in 85.5%, among the cases of them mulliple gallstone was 71.1%, dilated cystic duct was 26.4%, common bile duct stone 36.8%, distal bile ductal stricture was found in 9.3%, and anomalous conjunction of biliary and pancreatic duct was 20.1%. Sixteen cases with serious pancreatitis were determined on operation, but death rate was 3.7% only. The authors claim that early operation may be of value in patients of acute gallstone pancreatitis with or without jaundice espesially in bile duct obstruction.
The conectration of cholecystokinin infasting serum was determined by radioimmunoessay in 30 patients with gastric antrum cancer before and after radical sbutotal gastrectomy.It was 119.6±142.2pmol/L before the operation and 78.5±149.2pmol/L after the operation,which was significantly lower than that before the operation,P=0.022. The result suggests that the reduction of cholecytokinin secretion after gastrectomy was one of the important causes in the bile stasis,the disturbance of gallbladder emptying funcion and the formation of gallstone.
