Abstract

The SGO-T and SGP-T values were studied among 19 non-biliary surgical patients for control and 21 biliary tract surgical patients from Feb. to August 1969 in Chung Nam Medical Centor. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The SGO-T and SGP-T evels in the non-biliary surgical patients was in the normal range during pre-operative and postoperative days. 2. In patients with biliary disease SGO-T and SGP-T level were high beyond normal range on the pre-operative day. On the 1st postoperative day, these values were more elevated about 20 % and 11 %, respectively, but decreased gradually on the second and third postoperative days. 3 In biliary patients, the values were lower than pre-operative level on the 3rd postoperative day. On the other hand, values had not dropped to pre-operative level on the 3rd postoperative day in non-biliary patients.
