ABSTRACT
A 17 year old female patient developed in 6 month a gradually exacerbating stomach passage disturbance not responding to conservative treatment. Clinical and radiological examinations verified that the compression of the duodenum was caused by irregular position of the arteria mesenterica superior. The patient was operated on and a dissection and transposition of the duodenum was performed using an end-to-end anastomosis before the arteria mesenterica superior. This method has never been seen in Hungary before. The good result of the operation was verified by the control examinations.

During the 15 year period between 1958 and 1973 the authors operated on 21 cases of pyloric stenosis caused by biliary calculi, occuring in 12 percent of their patients suffering from pyloric stenosis. They call attention to the fact that cholecystectomy made in good time can prevent pyloric stenosis being a complication of neglected cases.

In 373 hospitalized patients with bacteriologically positive bile samples, the aetiology was clarified by laboratory methods in 80% of clinically verified gallbladder and biliary duct infections and in 15.5% of diseases related to the biliary duct. The relationship between anacidity and biliary duct infection and the high incidence of biliary duct infections at advanced age are pointed out. About 90% of the cultures yielded intestinal bacteria and in more than 50% of the bile samples, E. coli was present.

The sensitivity to antibiotics of the various bacterium strains has been studied in the bile samples of 373 patients with gallbladder and/or biliary duct infection and the clinical effect of antibiotic therapy applied to 325 instances was recorded. The antibiograms suggested an increased resistance mainly of the intestinal bacteria isolated from the bile samples. An increase in the ratio of polyresistant strains was observed. Gentamycin, neomycin, polymixin and kanamycin were the most potent in vitro. Parenterally administered chloramphenicol and oxytetracycline acted favourable in most cases of biliary infection. This therapy was successful even against pathogens resistant in vitro to chloramphenicol and oxytetracycline. The higher efficacy of aimed antibiotic therapy compared to randomly applied treatment is stressed and confirmed by numerical data.
