ABSTRACT
A study of 198 patients with chronic gastritis after cholecystectomy revealed that chronic gastritis occurred in 2.6-4.5% of patients with benign diseases of the biliary tract and postcholecystectomy syndrome that were not diagnosed before surgery. Gastric disorders should be considered in the complex of rehabilitation measures after cholecystectomy. Treatment in a gastroenterological department and at health resort will improve long-term results.

Results are reported of examination and treatment of 26 patients with gastric and duodenal ulcer which was the cause of postcholecystectomy syndrome and was often not diagnosed before the operation. Roentgenography of the gastrointestinal tract and fibrogastroduodenoscopy helps to establish the diagnosis. Treatment in a gastroenterological clinic and health-resort treatment allow to improve long-term results in this category of patients.
