Biliary dyskinesia Dyskinesia of the gallbladder affects every fifth person. Dyskinesia is a functional disruption of the gallbladder, as well as bile ducts. With this disease, the contraction of the gallbladder and bile ducts is disturbed. Abbreviations do not occur synchronously and out of time.


With dyskinesia of the gallbladder, its ability to contract is impaired. With such violations, a person often has biliary colic - a strong pain in the area of ​​the gallbladder. The appearance of such colic should alert any person, since this symptom indicates that the gallbladder is not emptied as expected. Dyskinesia of the bile duct has many symptoms, but pain colic is the most common.

Telling about this disease, you can not fail to mention the sphincter of the gallbladder, which is called the sphincter of Oddi. This sphincter unlocks and locks the entrance into the gallbladder. With dyskinesia, the work of this sphincter is broken. In addition, very often in patients with dyskinesia, there are other diseases: cholelithiasis, peptic ulcer and duodenal ulcer, cholecystitis.

Varieties of the disease

Doctors share dyskinesia of the gallbladder and biliary tract into two varieties: primary and secondary. Everything depends on the reasons that caused the development of the disease.

Primary dyskinesia of biliary tract

Primary dyskinesia differs from secondary dyskinesia in that there are no pathological changes in the gallbladder or in the bile ducts. But despite this, you can not take primary dyskinesia as a trifling disease. If it is not treated, the disease can lead to severe bile congestion in the gallbladder, which will lead to a lot of consequences. The consequences can be very different. Sometimes there is an acute inflammatory process. Some patients develop gallstones. In addition, dyskinesia of bile ducts without treatment has a bad effect on the digestive system. And this is not surprising. After a violation of work in one body leads to disruption of work in all body systems.

Secondary dyskinesia of the bile duct

Secondary dyskinesia occurs as a result of certain diseases. Most often, the cause of the disease is cholecystitis, the formation of stones in the biliary tract, the pathology of the gallbladder( stenoses, kinks, constrictions and the like).If the child was diagnosed with secondary dyskinesia of the biliary tract, then most likely the development of the disease resulted in congenital anomalies.

With secondary dyskinesia, bile in the liver is formed constantly. Bile enters the duodenum during the process of digestion. Coordination of this process occurs due to certain relations between the terminal section of the bile duct and the bile duct itself. In order for the bile to enter the duodenum, the gallbladder begins to contract rhythmically during the digestive tract. As a result of such contractions of the walls of the bladder, bile is separated. Oddi's sphincter relaxes and this opens the gallbladder. Thus, the separated bile can get into the bile ducts, and from there already into the duodenum.

Features of the course of the disease

Unfortunately, most often women suffer from dyskinesia of bile ducts. Men suffer from this disease twice less often. Very often women with dyskinesia who have a lean physique. In addition, studies have shown that there is a link between dyskinesia of the gallbladder and the menstrual cycle - the more irregular the cycle, the greater the risk of contracting the disease.

Men and women suffer from secondary dyskinesia of the bile ducts also unequally. Diseases that provoke secondary dyskinesia are more common in women. However, if the cause of secondary dyskinesia are diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, then men and women are equally at risk.

Causes of development of dyskinesia of the gallbladder

Above it has been said that most often dyskinesia of the gallbladder provokes diseases that are associated with the gastrointestinal tract. But this disease can provoke and other factors:

Breaking the hormonal background

In 30% of all cases, dyskinesia of the gallbladder provokes various hormonal disorders in the body. Most often, these disorders are associated with impaired functioning of the endocrine system.

Pharmacological preparations

Today in the pharmacy you can find a lot of medicines. But each drug has its side effects. Some drugs lead to stagnation of bile in the gallbladder. If these medicines are taken for a long time, they can lead to the development of dyskinesia of the gallbladder. To avoid this, be sure to read the instructions before using the drug. Unfortunately, a doctor should not be given high hopes, since he does not always pay attention to such nuances.

Hormonal contraceptives

One of the reasons why women are more likely than men to suffer from dyskinesia of the bile ducts is the intake of hormonal drugs. Very often women use contraceptives to protect themselves from unwanted pregnancies. These contraceptives lead to a violation of the hormonal background, which in turn provokes the onset of the disease. In addition, hormonal drugs have many side effects. So before you start using them, think carefully and weigh all the advantages and disadvantages.

Allergic reactions

Sometimes doctors can not establish the cause for a long time, which led to the development of biliary dyskinesia. Not all doctors know that this disease can trigger an allergic reaction that appears on foods.

Hepatitis and poisoning

Sometimes severe poisoning provokes the development of dyskinesia of the gallbladder. In this case, it does not matter what substances caused the intoxication - household chemicals, food toxins, poisonous substances or something else. Result one - suffers GIT, a cholic bubble and its or his ducts. The same applies to hepatitis. In this disease, the liver is very severely affected. And we all know that the work of the liver is directly related to the work of the gall bladder.

How to eat properly with dyskinesia of the gall bladder

With this disease, it is very important for a patient to follow a diet. Proper nutrition can not only accelerate recovery, but also improve the course of the disease. In addition, proper nutrition is an excellent prevention of dyskinesia of the gallbladder.

From its diet, the patient must exclude such foods: salty dishes( pickles, pickles, salted fish, etc.), pickled dishes, spicy dishes and various smoked products( sausages, condiments and the like), all kinds of sauces( except for sour cream only).

Products that must be present in the patient's diet: fruits, vegetables, dairy products, foods that contain a lot of dietary fiber. Such a diet will benefit the digestive tract and improve the condition of the patient.
