Increased risk for gallstone disease in subjects operated on for partial gastrectomy with gastro-jejunostomy (BII operation)
Abstract
The prevalence of cholelithiasis has been investigated in 301 male subjects (age range 35-60 years) operated on for partial gastrectomy with gastro-jejunostomy (BII), in 277 unoperated peptic ulcer patients (age range 30-60 years) and in a control population of 281 factory's workers (age range 31-58 years). The prevalence of gallstone disease resulted significantly higher in BII operated subjects (23.9%) than in unoperated (9%) and controls (8.5%). No difference was found between unoperated peptic ulcer patients and controls. These results indicate that BII operation is a high risk condition for cholelithiasis while peptic ulcer disease does not constitute a favourable factor for gallstone formation.
