OBJECTIVE To study function of the liver, sphincter system and the gall bladder (GB) in patients with biliary dyskinesia (BD). METHODS Thirty-four patients with BD have undergone clinical, fibrogastroduodenoscopic examinations, fractional duodenal intubation with examination of the bile, ultrasonography, dynamic scintigraphy of the hepatobiliary system. RESULTS The examination of the patients has detected GB hypotonia (65%), GB hypertension (35%), Oddi's sphincter hypertention (28%), Oddi's sphincter hypotonia (44%), Lutkens' sphincter hypertonicity (19%), Lutkens' sphincter hypotonia (13%), impairment of intrahepatic biliary tracts (65%), lithogenic bile (100%), duodenogastric reflux (41%). CONCLUSIONS Consecutive use of duodenal tubing, ultrasonography and hepatobiliscintigraphy provide assessment of defects in the function of the liver, biliary tract and sphincter system in patients with BD.
