Is Pancreaticobiliary Reflux in Patients With Cholelithiasis and Without Cholelithiasis a Normal Phenomenon?


The objective of this study is to measure the levels of amylase and lipase in gallbladder
bile of patients without gallstones and compare these values to the values of amylase and
lipase of patients with gallstones and normal pancreaticobiliary union evidenced by
intraoperative cholangiography.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Age older than 15 years of age

- Elective surgery

- Normal intraoperative cholangiography

- Normal preoperative serum amylase and lipase values

Exclusion Criteria:

- Common bile duct stones

- Anatomic anomalies at the pancreaticobiliary junction evidenced by intraoperative
cholangiography

- Altered preoperative amylase and lipase levels

- Altered preoperative hepatic function tests

- Emergency surgery

Type of Study:

Observational

Study Design:

Observational Model: Case Control, Time Perspective: Prospective

Outcome Measure:

Amylase and Lipase Values in Gallbladder Bile

Outcome Description:

Normal values of lipase and amylase in gallbladder bile should be zero

Outcome Time Frame:

24 hours

Safety Issue:

No
