Objective  To analyze the preoperative diagnosis and the operative methods for different types of Mirizzi syndrome (MS). Methods  Eighty-six cases of MS confirmed by operation were enrolled from March 1990 to December 2008. Their laboratory examination results and X-ray appearances of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) were analyzed as well as B-ultrasonography (B-us), CT scan and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). According to the Csendes typing, different operative methods were adopted. Results  The final diagnosis rate by ERCP for MS attained approximately 85.71% (48/56) in contrast with 17.44% (15/86) by B-us, with 9.52% (4/42) by CT scan and with 71.88%(23/32) by MRCP. Twenty cases were Csendes type Ⅰ, 43 cases were type Ⅱ, 17 cases were type Ⅲ, and 6 cases were type Ⅳ. According to the Csendes typing, the cases of type Ⅰ were treated by for the cholecystectomy or partial resection for reserving the neck of gallbladder, type Ⅱ by fistula reparation and laying up the T type drainage-tube under the fistula, and type Ⅲ and type Ⅳ by the hepaticocholangiojejunostomy and hepaticoduodenostomy. Conclusion  The preoperative diagnosis for MS is very difficult, B-us may be acted as an accessory diagnostic method. ERCP and MRCP can improve the rate of preoperative diagnosis for MS strikingly. The best reasonable method of the operative therapy is selected according to the different pathologic type of MS.
