Özet
Gallbladder motility in patients with asymptomatic gallstones (n:35,17M, 18F aged 33.80 years with a mean age of 53 years), patients with symptomatic gallstones (n:21, 5M, 16F, aged 24-70 years with a mean age of 45 years), and gallstone patients with biliary obstruction(n:15, 7M, 8F, aged 45-75 years with a mean age of 60 years) was measured by ultrasound (7.5 MHz). Fasting volume was determined prior to the test meal while postprandial measurements were taken 15 and 45 minutes after the test meal. Gallbladder fasting volume was greater in patients with biliary obstruction than in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients (32.6 ± 7.3 mL, 29.8 ± 7.4 and 23.9 ± 4.6 mL respectively, p > 0.05). Ejection fraction(15 min) was significantly lower in biliary obstruction cases than in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients (%8 ± 11.6, %47.6 ± 5.7 and %42.6 ± 5.3, respectively) and 45. min values remained significantly lower in these cases than in asymptomatic and symptomatic patients (%14.5 ± 10.8, %56 ± 5.5 and %57.9 ± 3, respectively). Based on the above results, it is concluded that, gallbladder motility may be impaired secondary to obstruction in patients with cholelithiasis.
