ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the therapeutic value of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) and oral praziquantel on severe clonorchiasis sinensis. Methods Fifty-eight patients with severe clonorchiasis sinensis were treated by ENBD (observing group, ENBD group) , and other 26 patients treated by surgical operation (control group, operation group). Both groups are matched in age, gender etc. After the procedure all patients receive orally praziquantel 1. 2g, three times a day for 2 days. Results In ENBD group the symptoms, such as abdominal pain, fever, jaundice improved earlier than those in operation group. In compare with the surgical operation, ENBD shares the advantages of earlier remission and recovery, less trauma, scarce complications and low expense. Conclusion ENBD and oral praziquantel is an effective and safe procedure in treating severe clonorchiasis sinensis.
