AIM: The study of lipid fraction spectrum in plasma of patients with chronic calculous cholecystitis (CCC) before and after the operative intervention. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 28 female patients with CCC. Plasma lipids were measured before the operation, 1 and 5 days after it, at the discharge from hospital and in healthy donors. RESULTS: Before the operation blood concentrations of total lipids, triacylglycerins, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were elevated. Cholesterol, lisophosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, cholesterol/phospholipids ratio were subnormal. The same changes of the lipids persisted 1 and 5 days after the surgery and at discharge. CONCLUSION: Plasma lipids in CCC patients are not corrected early after the surgery and require drug correction.
