Bacterioholia

Bacteriocholia is the presence of bacteria in bile. This condition occurs when the biliary tract and gallbladder become infected.

Causes of bacteriocholia:

  1. Stones in the bile ducts, forming stagnation of bile, which promotes the proliferation of bacteria.

  2. Inflammatory diseases of the biliary system (cholecystitis, cholangitis).

  3. Decreased immunity.

  4. Previous operations on the biliary tract.

Main symptoms:

  1. Pain in the right hypochondrium.

  2. Increased body temperature.

  3. Nausea, vomiting.

  4. Jaundice.

  5. Enlarged liver.

Diagnosis is based on blood and bile tests, instrumental studies (ultrasound, MRI, endoscopy).

Treatment: antibacterial therapy, restoration of biliary tract patency, and, if necessary, surgical intervention.

The prognosis with timely treatment is favorable. Complications may include cholangitis and liver failure.



Bacteriochology is the unique ability of microbes to cause cholestasis and cholangitis. This concept means the flow of cholestitis through the biliary tract, as well as invasion of the bile duct during cholecystitis and biliary tract dysfunction in patients with chronic cholecystitis (CKD), including gallstones. Bacterochological causes in modern literature describe only cholangiomas and pancreatic adenomas, which are exceptions. The main factor in these pathologies is the presence of the hepatitis B virus in the human body.

Bacteria that cause the progression of biliary diseases include E. coli, S. typhi, Shigella sp., E. faecalis and other microorganisms. Determination of the pathogenic activity of a number of microbes, for example, Enterococcus, Klebsiella pneumonia and Eschericia coli, includes the release of bacterial toxins that can cause liver ulceration, accumulation of purulent and serous bodies in the bloodstream, and deposition of toxins in liver tissue.
