title: [Analytical study of 80 cases of lithiasic cholangitis].
abstract: A retrospective study of 80 cases of lithiasic cholangitis treated between 1970 and 1982 demonstrated that cholangitis represents 45 p. 100 of the clinical manifestations of stones in the main biliary tract and 6.5 p. 100 of biliary surgery. This complication mainly affects female patients (3 out of 4 cases) and charcot's triad is the form that is most frequently encountered (81.25 p. 100 of cases). External drainage of the main biliary tract by Kerr's drain was performed in 32,5 p. 100 of cases and internal bypass operations in the remainder (A.B.D. : 36,15 p. 100, sphincterotomy : 32,25 p. 100). Mortality has reached 11,25 p. 100, including over half of the cases by cholangitis of uremic origin.
