[Results of functional scintigraphic studies of the hepatobiliary system following reconstruction of bile duct injuries with ring drainage splinting]. Zentralblatt fur Chirurgie, 1988, Volume: 113, Issue:18 Functional-scintigraphic examinations were conducted to establish liver functionality and kinetics of extrahepatic bile flow, using 99mTc-Rotop-Ehida, in 25 patients with bilio-biliary or bilio-digestive anastomosis calibrated by ring drainage. Checks were made with indwelling drainage in place or after its removal. Liver damage was detectable in 80 per cent of all probands. The method based on nuclear medicine has proved to be more suitable for quantitative functionality assessment than clinical examinations and enzyme activity tests. With ring drainage in place, it may provide useful information complementary to X-ray presentation of bile duct conditions. After removal of ring drainage, it should be preferred to invasive methods of examination.
