Biliary diseases (gallbladder dysfunction, chronic acalculous cholecystitis, chronic calculous cholecystitis, gallstone disease, postcholecystectomy syndrome) are very widespread diseases of the digestive apparatus [1-8].

Currently in the U.S. there are approximately 30 million patients with cholelithiasis, and about 15 million patients recovering from surgery, which is 14.3% of the total population, in Canada – 25.0% (8.7 million), in Chile – 21.6-35.2% ( 4.8 million), in Peru – 14.3% (4.2 million), in South Africa – 10.0% (4.9 million), in Italy – 13.8% (8.3 million), in Sweden – 15.0-50.5% (2.4 million), in Denmark – 8.8-24.0% (about 1.0 million), in Norway – 21.9% (about 1.0 million), in the Great Britain – 7.5-21.7% (9.1 million), in Austria – 25.5% (2.1 million), in Germany – 19.7% (16.1 million), in Poland – 19.5% (7.4 million), in Romania – 10.9% (2.3 million), in France – 15.7% (10.3 million), in Russia – 5.0- 25.0% (20.1 million), in India – 6.1% (74.0 million), in China – 3.5% (47.1 million), in Japan – 3.2% (4.1 million), etc. [10-14]. Cholesterol cholelithiasis is 70-80% of the total number of gallstone disease [10-14].

Early diagnosis and treatment of pathology of biliary system is of great clinical importance because of the transformation of functional disorders of the biliary system in organic pathology - the gallbladder dysfunction → chronic cholecystitis acalculous without biliary sludge → chronic acalculous cholecystitis with biliary sludge → chronic calculous cholecystitis, which occurs as a result violation of colloidal stability of bile and join the inflammatory process [1-9].

Chronic calculous cholecystitis and cholesterol gallstone disease as diseases requiring surgical treatment, considered one of the main problems in gastroenterology. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered the "gold" standard in the treatment of chronic calculous cholecystitis [15-23]. Annually in the U.S. operated by 750,000 patients [10-14], in Germany - 190,000 [10-14], Russia - 160.000 [4].

The absence of the gallbladder leads to functional biliary hypertension and increased hepatic and common bile duct [8, 24-31]. 3-5 years after cholecystectomy increases right and left hepatic ducts equity [8, 24-31].

Functional hypertension in the common bile duct contributes to the appearance of functional and hypertension in Wirsung's pancreatic duct with the development of the phenomena of chronic pancreatitis [8, 24-31]. At the same time period in some patients this is accompanied by the progression of chronic pancreatitis, sphincter of Oddi dysfunction and duodenogastric reflux [8, 24-45].

Duodenogastric reflux of mixture of bile with pancreatic juice promotes atrophic gastritis in the antral part of stomach [8, 24-45].

From 40% to 60% of patients after cholecystectomy dyspeptic suffering from various disorders, from 20% to 40% of pains of different localization [32-45].

Up to 70% of patients after cholecystectomy have chronic effects of "bland" cholestasis, chronic cholestatic hepatitis and chronic compensatory bile acid-dependent apoptosis of hepatocytes [31-36].

Patients undergoing cholecystectomy had an increased prevalence of metabolic risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol levels [46-50].

Part of patients after cholecystectomy with increased concentration of hydrophobic hepatotoxic co-carcinogenic deoxicholic bile acid in serum and/or feces with increased risk of colon cancer [51-60].

For the treatment of biliary sludge and dissolution of cholesterol gallstones is used ursodeoxycholic bile acid [61-64]. When using the ursodeoxycholic bile acid the dissolution efficiency varies from 20% to 70%, the dissolution time is from 6 to 24 months, and the recurrence of cholelithiasis is 10% per annum or 50% within 5 years [61-64].

Absorption and concentration and evacuation function of the gall bladder plays an important role in the physiology of the formation of gallbladder bile. The mechanism of formation of lithogenic gallbladder bile was due to lower absorption and concentration functions of the gallbladder. Reducing the concentration of bile acids in gallbladder bile associated with lower water absorption of the gallbladder mucosa. Increasing the concentration of cholesterol in phospholipid vesicles - a decrease in absorbance phospholipid vesicles [9, 65-70].

Pathogenesis of cholesterol gall stones include the presence of:

  1. chronic "bland" intragallbladder cholestasis (reduced absorption, concentration and evacuation function of the gall bladder), contributing to the formation of lithogenic gallbladder bile, and
  2. chronic "bland" intrahepatic cholestasis (reduced excretory function of the liver), may influence the formation of lithogenic hepatic bile. These factors contribute to the formation of cholesterol gallstones in the gall bladder [9, 65-70].

Absorption, concentration and evacuation function of the gall bladder plays an important role in the regulation of gallbladder-dependent and gallbladder-independent enterohepatic circulation of bile acids. The gallbladder in humans, accumulating bile acids and excluding them from the enterohepatic circulation, helps reduce the formation of secondary hydrophobic hepatotoxic bile acids (lithocholic and deoxycholic bile acids) and thus protects the liver, gastric mucosa, gallbladder, and colon cancer from exposure to them.

Absorption and concentration and evacuation function of the gallbladder, the functional state of the sphincter of Oddi and anatomical features of the sphincter of Oddi hepatopancreatic ampulla determine development and dominance of a certain type of pathology in each individual patient with biliary tract disease [9, 65-96].

Celecoxib, effectively blocking the inflammation in the gallbladder wall, significantly reduces the risk of cholesterol gallstones [97].

Ursodeoxycholic acid during chronic administration, blocking the inflammation in the gallbladder wall [98-101], dissolving the crystals of monohydrate cholesterol [102-103], reducing the gallbladder bile lithogenicity [104-108], restoring the evacuation function of the gallbladder [109-114], improving accumulative-excretory function of the liver [115-119], increasing blood flow to the liver [120-128] and reducing lithogenicity hepatic bile [115, 117], significantly reduces the risk of biliary sludge in the transformation of cholesterol gallstones [129], the risk of acute calculous cholecystitis and biliary colic [130-131], the risk of acute biliary pancreatitis and recurrent pancreatitis [130-135] in patients with cholelithiasis.

And also, ursodeoxycholic acid during chronic administration, restoring the "passage" of hepatic bile in the gall bladder and reducing the "passage" of hepatic bile into the duodenum, eliminates the mechanism of duodenal-gastric reflux of bile, reduces the risk of bile-reflux gastritis (atrophic antral gastritis) and the appearance of intestinal metaplasia in gastric antral [136-143].

About author, main scientific results and acknowledgments

Dr. Jacob L. Turumin (Iakov L. Tyuryumin), MD, PhD, DMSci, 04.23.1960, Doctor of Medical Sciences is engaged by elaboration of the effective pathogenetic proved methods of treatment of the biliary diseases and the pancreatic diseases, directed on decrease of morbidity, on prolongation of complete clinical remission period, on improvement of quality of life of patients after cholecystectomy, on increase of vital activity and life span (Russia).

In 1989-1990 he took an active part in elaboration of the theme “Remedy for prevention of gallstone formation in the gallbladder” and the hepato-protective agent “Siberian Tea” (Salsola Collina) - Patent No. 2020947 RU.

In 1991 Turumin J.L. successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis: "Role of cholestanol in the pathogenesis of cholesterol cholelithiasis" - Patent No.: RU 1691750.

In 1996 the new model of the pathogenesis of cholesterol cholelithiasis was first presented at the XIV International Bile Acid Meeting "Bile Acids in Hepatobiliary Diseases - Basic Research and Clinical Application" (Freiburg, Germany, 1996).

In 1997 the new conception of the "Role of the Gallbladder in a Human" was first presented at the XIX Congress of the Latin American Federation of the International College of Surgeons (La Paz, Bolivia, 1997).

In 2000 he defended his Doctor's degree thesis: "Mechanism of development of morphological-functional disturbances in the gallbladder and liver in the pathogenesis of cholesterol cholelithiasis".

In 2006, for the first time in the world, Dr. Turumin JL (MD, PhD, DMSci) removed a large (25*22 mm), thick (4-5 mm) primary melanoma without surgical treatment, without radiation therapy, without chemotherapy and without immunotherapy on the left cheek in a 42 year-old woman. The tumour was removed by means of local treatment with use of drops of disulfiram solution and drops of CuSO4 solution. Local, transit, regional and distant metastasis аrе absent since 2006, i.e. duration of disease-free period is 7 years.

In 2007 a new algorithm of pathogenetic treatment of the biliary diseases was first presented at Falk Symposium No.161 "Future Perspectives in Gastroenterology (Dresden, Germany, 2007).

In 2010 he accepted an active participation in elaboration of the theme "Model of formation of functional disturbances in the sphincter of Oddi in patients with biliary diseases".

In 2010 - 2011 he took an active part in in elaboration of the theme "The algorithm of the pathogenetic treatment of primary and metastatic melanoma".

In 2010-2011 he took an active part in elaboration and in completion of the theme “The Algorithm of the Pathogenetic Treatment of Symptomatic (with biliary pain) Biliary Diseases with Concomitant Functional Disorders in Sphincter of Oddi”.

In 2012-2013 he took an active part in elaboration and in completion of the theme "Functional disorders in the sphincter of Oddi and possibly reflux associated diseases in the hepato-biliary-cholecysto-pancreatico-duodeno-gastro-esophageal region".

In 2013 the article "Turumin JL, Shanturov VA, Turumina HE. The role of the gallbladder in humans. Revista de Gastroenterología de México. 2013; 78(3): 177-187" was published.

At present the algorithm of pathogenetic treatment of the biliary diseases is used in 105 countries of the North America, Central America and South America, Europe and Asia Pacific, Africa and Middle East (Russia, Canada, USA, Barbados (West Indies), Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Great Britain, Ireland, Island, Denmark, Belgium, Netherlands, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain, Portugal, Luxemburg, Italy, Israel, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia, Greece, European Countries, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China, Mongolia, South Korea, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Madagascar, Egypt, Algeria, Ghana, Nigeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon, Tanzania, Qatar, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Palestinian Territories, Yemen, Libya, Syria, and South Africa, Botswana).

In general, as a result of the scientific activity, 193 scientific works have been published, 6 patents, 2 monographs, 64 abstracts were presented on 23 international congresses and symposiums.Read more
