Abstract

Background: A surgically correctable form of jaundice is its obstructive type that if its cause is correctly defined, it will be a great help to the surgeon. The first imaging step to assess an icteric patient is ultrasonography, which if results in accurate diagnosis, will lead to a reduction in expenses and time spent, in addition to avoidance of unnecessary exposure to irradiation.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. In this study, 65 patients with CHOLESTATIC JAUNDICE underwent pre-operative ultrasound and their images in Razi Hospital (Rasht, Iran) Ultrasonography Unit during 6 months were compared with intra-operative clinical findings during surgery. Then, consistency rates between sonographic findings and intraoperative findings were calculated.Findings: Sonographic results showed that 30 cases had Stones (46.2%), 19 cases neoplasm (29.2%), including pancreatic cancer (10 cases), carcinoma of the Vater's ampulla (3 cases), Klatskin tumors (2 cases) and cholangiocarcinoma of the distal portion of common bile duct (4 cases). Consistency rates between surgical and sonographic findings on stones were reported as 93.3% (28 cases) and the remaining 6.7% (2 cases) had stenosis due to cholangitis without stones. Consistency rate between surgical and sonographic findings on neoplasms was reported as 78.9% (15 of 19).Ultrasonographic diagnosis was completely accurate regarding pancreatic cancer and Klatskin tumors, but not regarding carcinoma of Vater's ampulla and cholangiocarcinoma of the distal portion of common bile duct.Conclusion: Ultrasound is a valuable and noninvasive diagnostic modality in the evaluation of biliary stone in patients with obstructive CHOLESTATIC JAUNDICE. However, it appears that for assessing other causes of CHOLESTATIC JAUNDICE, other diagnostic modalities are necessary.
