title: [Ultrasound diagnosis of bile ducts after cholecystectomy].
abstract: The paper is concerned with the results of multiprojectional ultrasound investigation of the biliferous system in 68 patients at varying time after cholecystectomy. In most cases (77.9%) signs of dilated biliary ducts were undetectable. Dilatation of the hepaticodoch was most frequently determined by choledolithiasis, stricture or stenosing papillitis, rarely--by pancreatic head cancer. Investigation of the biliary ducts in patients after cholecystectomy should be started with ultrasound tomography; endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography or iv cholangiography and dynamic cholescintigraphy were indicated after the detection of the signs of dilated ducts (the anteroposterior diameter of the common hepatic duct was over 6 mm).
