The Importance of Ultrasound Examination in the Studding of the Gall Bladder Anatomic Variations and Their Influence in Biliary Dyskinesia

Afrim Pirraci

Abstract: Significance and Purpose It is important for surgical purposes to know the gall bladder variations in detail. The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency of the gall bladder shape related anatomic variations using ultrasonographic (US) exploration and their impact on Biliary Dyskinesia. Materials and Methods 7294 (64.8 %) hospitalized patients, 3112 (27.7 %) ambulatory and 844 (7.5 %) volunteers underwent US examination in the hospital between January 2010 March 2013. The images were seen for possible anatomic variations and their influence in biliary dyskinesia. Results In total 1250 patients were studied, 92 (0.82 %) showed gall bladder anatomic variations related to shape, 33 patients (0.29 %) presents with anatomic variations of the construction of the gall bladder, 8 patients (0.07 %) anatomic variations of positioning and 13 patients (0.11 %) with anatomic variations of genesis.53 (36.3 %) of the patients with above anatomic variations represented the status of Biliary Dyskinesia. Discutions The anatomic variations of the gall bladder are favoring factors of gall stones forming and inflamation. The association with other congenital malformations should increse detailed control of all the elements of the biliary tract. Conclusion Pointing out these anatomical variations before the surgical intervention may prevent possible iatrogenic traumas. Anatomic variations of the gall bladder may stimulate Biliary Dyskinesia.
