32 patients with chronic calculous
cholecystitis were treated by a new preparation.
Phosphogliv (on the base of polyunsaturated
phospholipids)--5 days before planned surgery and 5 days after. The increase of
alanine and
asparagine aminotransferases activities and of
bilirubin concentration (2-2.5 fold) was observed in all the patients, cirespective of the
drug treatment. However, the essential difference between treated and untreated patients was revealed in the course of post-operative period. In the control group
asparagine aminotransferase activity and
bilirubin level remained high, and
alanine aminotransferases activity even more increased. In contrast, both two
aminotransferases activities and
bilirubin level fell substantially in
Phosphogliv group, that may show more active liver regeneration after surgery. Besides, in this group operation did not result even in short-time changes of
plasma protein fractions ratios--opposite to control. It may testify on some protective action of
Phosphogliv on liver
protein-synthesis system. The observed action of new
phospholipid preparation
Phosphogliv, together with the absence of side effects, allows to recommend it as an adjuvant in the surgery of patients with chronic calculous
cholecystitis. Besides, the above results broaden usage field of
polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine as cell membranes repair agent: it appears to be effective not only for
liver diseases treatment, but also for soonest overcome of post-surgery liver changes.
