Popis: | The effect of absolute alcohol on the human gallbladder mucosa was examined on freshly removed gallbladders and also in in vivo just before its removal. The histologic examination shows that extensive sloughing and ulceration of the mucosa occurs after 20 minutes of direct contact. No ulceration in the deeper layers of the gallbladder wall occurs. There are also no other side effects related to the use of absolute alcohol in vivo. |
