Abstract

The composition and the rate fo flow of bile produced in response to a standard fatty meal in cholecystectomized dogs have been determined before and after vagotomy and pyloroplasty. The results presented support the view that vagotomy is potentially lithogenic, particularly after cholecystectomy.
