Abstract
The cause of postcholecystectomic syndrom is still unknown. The purpose of this report is to clarify this question.
As the method of investigation, Pancreozymin Secretin test were done in 18 cases with postcholecystectomic syndrom. The results were compared with that of case with pancreatitis, gastritis and cholelithiasis.
The following results were obtained:
The moderate decrea of HCO3 concentration was found in most cases with postchole-cystectomic syndrom. In some cases HCO3 concentration decreased to 60mEq/L.
From these results it was concluded that the patient with cholelithiasis, even after cholecystectomy, showed decreased pancreatic function and this fact might be related with postcholecystectomy syndrom.
