There are a lot of different views on the definition of postcholecystectomy syndrome. 4 major causes of complications after cholecystectomy are distinguished. Pathogenesis of digestive disorders associated with postcholecystectomy syndrome is proved to be a complex and multicomponent process, consisting of a number of interlinked and closely related pathogenic "rings". In case of absence of indications for surgical correction of the syndrome, prescription of combination of pancreatine in enterosoluble mini-microspheres and selective myotropic anti-spasmatic mebeverine is recommended as the optimal way of breaking the "vicious circle" described above.
