Title: [Clinical and biochemical aspects of the course of strawberry gallbladder]. Author: Demyda EP. Journal: Lik Sprava; 2003; (1):49-52. PubMed ID: 12712610. Abstract: The article is devoted to an infrequently diagnosed affection of the gallbladder--cholesterosis. The conclusion reached from the analysis of clinical, laboratory, biochemical findings is that the condition under consideration is more commonly seen among middle-aged and elderly persons; it runs a latent course that can be associated with cholelitiasis: the condition develops in the presence of obesity, abnormalities in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. In cholesterosis, there takes place a decline in the motility-evacuatory function of the gallbladder and a disturbance in the biochemical composition of the bile.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
