title: [Anthropometric and topographic characteristics of the gallbladder in cholecystitis].
abstract: Anthropometric studies were carried out upon 228 patients with cholecystitis, and the findings were compared to those obtained in the control group. The location of the liver anterior margin, projection of the gall-bladder fundus, the upper point of the gall-bladder, the site of the fusion of the cystic duct and the hepaticocholedochus versus the spine and the costal arch margin were studied in 174 patients. On the grounds of these studies a classification embracing 9 variants of the gall-bladder position has been suggested together with some variants of oblique incision in the right subcostal region with regard to the individual topography of the gall-bladder.
