Duodenal bile obtained from patients with gallstones who were acutely infused with chenodeoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, or cholic acid were examined for the propensity toward the formation of a liquid crystalline mesomorphic phase when cholesterol gallstones were incubated in these bile acid
In five patients with radiolucent gallstones, the effect of ursodeoxycholic acid (Urso) in doses of 250,500, 750, 1,000, and 1,250 mg per day on biliary lipid and bile acid composition was studied. Biliary cholesterol decreased from 8.8 f 0.8 mole% to 4.4 f 0.2 mole% at 500 mg Urso per day (7.1 mg p
