[The relationship between Oddi's sphincter and bile duct pigment gallstone].
摘要
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between anatomic abnormalities and malfunction of Oddi sphincter with formation of bile duct pigment gallstone. METHODS: One hundred and twenty-three patients with a T tube after cholecystectomy and choledochotomy were divided into reflux group and control group by measuring the amounts of radioactivity of (99m)Tc-DTPA in the bile. Among them 53 were selected randomly to undergo choledochoscopic manometry. Basal pressure of Oddi's sphincter (SOBP), amplitude of Oddi's sphincter (SOCA), frequency of contraction (SOF), duration of contraction (SOD), duodenal pressure (DP), common bile duct pressure (CBDP) were scored and analyzed. The level of plasma motilin and serum gastrin of 45 patients and 12 healthy volunteers were measured by radioimmunoassay. The incidence rates of duodenal descending part diverticulum in patients with bile duct pigment stones, patients without alimentary tract diseases, patients with gallbladder polyps, patients with gallbladder stones were studied by means of barium meal examination. The incidence rates of intraduodenal peri-ampullary diverticulum in patients with primary bile duct pigment stones, patients with bile duct stone and gallbladder stones, patients with bile duct stones originating from the gallbladder, patients with inflammation and stricture of the extremity of bile duct and papilla, patients with cancer of the extremity of bile duct and papilla, patients with post-cholecystectomy syndrome were detected by duodenoscope. RESULTS: Of the patients, 44 were detected with duodenal-biliary reflux (35.8%). SOBP, SOCA and CBDP in the reflux group were much lower than those in control group (P < 0.001). The level of serum gastrin and plasma motilin of the reflux group were much lower than those of control group (P < 0.01). Positive correlation was found between level of motilin and SOBP while level of gastrin was positively correlated with SOBP and CBDP. The incidence of duodenal diverticulum in
