title: [Endoscopic treatment methods in patients with the postcholecystectomy syndrome].
abstract: 458 patients with postcholecystectomy syndrome have been examined. In 289 (63.1%) of them the reason of complication and location of the lesion in biliopancreatic-duodenal zone have been specified. In 212 (73.4%) patients the endoscopic treatment was used, including papillosphincterotomy with removal of concrements; suprapapillary choledochoduodenostomy; nasobiliary draining, endoprosthesis. In 181 (85.4%) of cases these methods appeared to be efficient and final; in 31 (14.6%) they promoted stabilization of clinical status of patients and performing surgery in more favorable conditions. Complications have been registered in 4 (1.9%) patients, 1 patient (0,47%) died. The authors advocate endoscopic methods as methods of choice in postcholecystectomy syndrome.
