[Acute enzymatic cholecystitis: difficulties in diagnosis and surgical treatment]. 1990

V I Girlia

In analysis of the results of clinical, laparoscopic and intraoperative investigations in 70 patients with acute obstructive, and 68--with acute enzymatic cholecystitis, it was established that for differential diagnosis of acute enzymatic cholecystitis, of most importance were the intractable pain in the right hypochondrium, early appearance of peritoneal symptoms, hyaloid edema of the gallbladder wall and hepatoduodenal ligament, exudate in the subhepatic space with a dash of bile, and detection of the phospholipase activity and high content of malonic dialdehyde in the cystic bile.

D008875	Middle Aged	An adult aged 45 - 64 years.	Middle Age
D010738	Type C Phospholipases	A subclass of phospholipases that hydrolyze the phosphoester bond found in the third position of GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS. Although the singular term phospholipase C specifically refers to an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE (EC 3.1.4.3), it is commonly used in the literature to refer to broad variety of enzymes that specifically catalyze the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLINOSITOLS.
