title: [Possible pathogenetic factors of gallstone formation in populations with a high standard of living (author's transl)].
abstract: The present work points out the variety of conditions favouring gallstone formation.--Recent research suggests that fibre-depleted, high-fat foods may lead to cholesterol gallstone formation in man. On the other side civilized diets contribute to the carcinogenesis of large bowel.--Experimental observations have indicated that hypovitaminosis C may favour pathogenesis of these diseases in a different way.
