The serum bilirubin was followed as an index to the degree of jaundice, a standard of reference being thus furnished for the comparison of the results in the two series of experiments.

Two groups comprising a total of fifteen animals were studied: those in which the common duct had been ligated, and those in which cholecystectomy had been performed in addition to ligation of the common duct. In all . . . [Full Text PDF of this Article]
