ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Hepatolithiasis is found predominantly in Southeast Asia and although it is a pathophysiologically benign disease, it frequently causes serious problems such as recurrent cholangitis, liver abscess, obstructive jaundice and sepsis. As a result it is said to be a clinically malignant disease. In order to select the best surgical treatment according to location of biliary stenosis, we analyzed the clinical manifestation of hepatolithiasis and follow-up results.METHODS:
We retrospectively reviewed 42 cases of hepatolithiasis treated by various surgical treatments from Jan. 1987 to Jun. 1998 at the Department of Surgery of Kangnam General Hospital.RESULTS:
In cases where the site of biliary stenosis was limited to the left intrahepatic duct, the relative incidence of good results was higher in the hepatectomy group(88.2%) than in the drainage group(0%). And in cases of biliary stenosis in both intrahepatic ducts, the relative incidence of good results was higher in the hepatectomy group(33.3%) than in the drainage group(0%). And in cases of no biliary stenosis, the relative incidence of good results was high(66.7%) even in the drainage group.CONCLUSION:
Hepatic resection is a satisfactory treatment option for patients with hepatolithiasis, especially in the cases of biliary stenosis.
