Microscopic examination of duodenal drainage

After collecting the specimens of the duodenal drainage liquid, the sediment is immediately taken as a smear, and microscopic examination is performed to observe cells, bacteria, crystals, and parasite eggs. Basic Information Specialist classification: Digestive examination classification: microscopy Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Normal value: no Above normal: negative: Normal when negative. Positive: Pathogenic bacteria are found in bile duct infections (mainly Gram-negative bacilli). Tips: Please relax and cooperate with the doctor's work during the examination. Normal value The cells have a small number of white blood cells or 0 to 20. The epithelial cells are a little or 0 to 1 (high power field). No red blood cells. Crystallization has a small amount of cholesterol crystals and no bilirubin crystals. The parasite eggs are absent. Bacteria have no pathogens. Clinical significance A large number of epithelial cells and white blood cells are found in duodenal inflammation and bile duct inflammation. A large number of red blood cells suggest hemorrhagic inflammation, tumors or stones such as duodenum, liver, gallbladder and pancreas. Bilirubin crystals and cholesterol crystals are found in bile duct stones. Parasitic eggs are found in biliary parasitic diseases (such as aphid eggs, hook eggs, liver fluke eggs, etc.). Pathogenic bacteria are found in bile duct infections (mainly Gram-negative bacilli). Positive results may be diseases: acute cholangitis, acute suppurative cholangitis, biliary ascariasis in children Duodenal drainage fluid specimens should be smeared immediately, otherwise their cellular components can be destroyed by trypsinization. Inspection process Each tube was centrifuged to remove slag (pick the abnormal part) and smear microscopic examination. Not suitable for the crowd Generally there are no people who are not suitable. Adverse reactions and risks Generally no adverse reactions.
