Zusammenfassung
Ziel: Die Untersuchung von Magenmotilität, Gallenblasenentleerung und Dyspepsie bei symptomatischen
Gallensteinträgern (SGBS) mit der Fragestellung, ob eine Motilitätsstörung, welche
sich sowohl bei der Magenfunktion als auch der Gallenblasenentleerung bemerkbar macht,
bei SGBS Dyspepsie verursacht. Material und Methoden: Magenfunktion und Gallenblasenentleerung bei 21 SGBS, die zur Operation eingewiesen
worden waren, wurden sonographisch bestimmt nach Einnahme von 500 ml Fleischsuppe.
Dyspeptische Symptome wurden ebenfalls auf einer Visuellen Analogskala (VAS) erfasst.
Die Patienten wurden 10 Monate nach Cholezystektomie nochmals untersucht. Krankenhauspersonal
(n = 14) dienten als Kontrollgruppe (C). Ergebnisse: Bei SGBS war der frontale Durchmesser des proximalen Magens weiter als bei C sowohl
nach 10 Minuten (55,7 vs. 48,3 mm; p = 0.053) als auch nach 20 Minuten (49,3 vs. 39,5
mm; p = 0.002), und der sagittale Bereich des proximalen Magens war nach 10 Minuten
größer (25,0 vs. 20,9 cm2 ; p = 0,03). Der postprandiale frontale Durchmesser wurde nach Cholezystektomie signifikant
kleiner (sofort nach der Mahlzeit: 51,3 mm; p = 0,03, nach 10 Minuten: 47,6 mm; p
= 0,05, und nach 20 Minuten: 39,1 mm; p = 0.004). 20 Minuten nach der Mahlzeit war
das Ausmaß der Gallenblasenentleerung signifikant geringer bei SGBS als bei C mit
einer mittleren (SD) Rate von 20 % (17) vs. 33 % (18); p < 0,04. Im Nüchternzustand
empfanden die SGBS mehr Hunger als C - 20 % (17) vs. 33 % (18); p < 0,04. Nach Cholezystektomie
verringerte sich das Hungergefühl (auf 27 mm; p = 0,01). Schlussfolgerung: SGBS hatten im Nüchternzustand einen weiteren Magen und mehr Hunger als C. Nach Cholezystektomie
verbesserte sich die Funktion des proximalen Magens, und das Ausmaß des Hungergefühls
ging zurück. Unsere Ergebnisse lassen eine physiologische Beziehung zwischen symptomatischer
Cholezystolithiasis und Dyspepsie vermuten, die durch eine beeinträchtigte Funktion
des proximalen Magens hervorgerufen wird.
Abstract
Aim: The aim of our study was to examine gastric function, gallbladder emptying, and dyspepsia
in symptomatic gallbladder stone patients (SGBS) to see if a motility disorder, expressed
by gastric function and gallbladder emptying, may cause dyspepsia in SBGS. Materials and Methods: Gastric function and gallbladder emptying in 21 SGBS referred for surgical treatment
were measured by ultrasound after ingestion of 500 ml of a meat soup (bouillon). Dyspeptic
symptoms were simultaneously recorded on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The patients
were re-examined 10 months after cholecystectomy. Hospital staff (n = 14) served as
control subjects (C). Results: In SGBS, the frontal diameter of the proximal stomach was wider than in C at both
10 minutes (55.7 vs. 48.3 mm; p = 0.053) and 20 minutes (49.3 vs. 39.5 mm; p = 0.002),
and the sagittal area of the proximal stomach was larger at 10 minutes (25.0 vs. 20.9
cm2 ; p = 0.03). The postprandial frontal diameter decreased significantly after cholecystectomy
(immediately after the meal: 51.3 mm; p = 0.03, at 10 minutes: 47.6 mm; p = 0.05,
and at 20 minutes: 39.1 mm; p = 0.004). Twenty minutes after meal ingestion, gallbladder
emptying was significantly less in SGBS than in C with a mean (SD) emptying of 20
% (17) versus 33 % (18); p < 0.04. In the fasting state, SGBS felt more hunger than
C (VAS 67 mm vs. 39 mm; p = 0.03). After cholecystectomy, the feeling of hunger decreased
(VAS 27 mm; p = 0.01). Conclusion: SGBS had a wider proximal stomach and more hunger in the fasting state than C. After
cholecystectomy the proximal stomach function and the hunger score improved. Our results
suggest a physiological link between symptomatic gallstone disease and dyspepsia expressed
by impaired proximal gastric function.
