We have measured the serum levels of total cholic acid (TCA) in 103 samples of obstructive jaundiced patients (OB group) and 83 samples of gallbladder stone patients without jaundice (control group) by enzymeconjugated colorimetric analysis method. The results revealed that TCA level was higher in OB group than in control group (P lt;0. 001) and had postive correlation with total bilirubin, direct bilirubin and alanine aminotransferase in OB group (P lt;0.01 in all). The clinical value of TCA in obstructive jaundice in comparison with alkaline phosphatase is discussed.
