title: [MICROBIAL LANDSCAPE OF BILE IN PATIENTS WITH AN ACUTE PURULENT CHOLANGITIS].
abstract: Bacteriological analysis was conducted in 136 patients with an acute purulent cholangitis (APCH). The APCH causes were: choledocholithiasis--in 40 (29.9%) patients, coexistence of a common biliary duct stricture and choledocholithiasis--in 39 (28.7%), compression of external biliary ducts by the oedematous pancreatic head in secondary pancreatitis--in 15 (11%), pericholedocheal lymphadenitis--in 3 (2.2%).
