Abstract
- BACKGROUND/AIMS
Various gastric and duodenal lesions were observed in patients with obstructive biliary disease. Previously we knew that serum bile acid level may be correlated with gastric and duodenal lesion in obstructive biliary disease. Now we will confirm the correlation of the serum bile acid concentration and gastro-duodenal lesions.
METHODS
A clinical analysis of the endoscopic finding and serum bile acid concentration was carried out in 120 patients with hepatobiliary and pancreas disease, from January 1999 to December 1999, in the department of Internal medicine, Chungnam National University Hospital.
RESULTS
1) In the 120 patients, sex distribution showed predominance in the males (84/36). 2) Disease profiles were included, liver cirrhosis (66.7%), hepatocellular carcinoma (38.3%), pancreatic cancer (15.8%). 3) The gastroduodenal lesions were erosive gastritis (33.3%), gastric ulcer (20.0%), duodenal ulcer (16.7%) in orders. 3) According to serum bile acid concentration, gastroduodenal lesions were more than in elevated bile acid concentration group.
CONCLUSIONS
Gastroduodenal lesions in hepatobiliary and pancreas disease patients were related with serum bile acid concentration.
