title: [Cholecystosis, the diagnostic and treatment problems].
abstract: In the interval 1981-1989 at the Ist Clinic of Surgery of Iaşi 230 cases of chronic cholecystitis were admitted and operated upon (cholesterolosis--24 cases, dysmorphosis--84 cases, dysplasia--22 cases). Most cases had a morphologic--dysmetabolic substrate--strawberry gallbladder, alone or associated with other lesions (lithiasis, cirrhosis, pancreatitis), rare cases being also found (porcelain gallbladder--1 case, calcium bile--2 cases, gallbladder diverticulosis--3 cases, longitudinal complete obstruction of cystic duct by gallstone--2 cases). This condition is more frequent in women in the 3rd dad 4th decade, the symptoms being discrete, uncharacteristic, but persistent. The diagnosis is based on duodenal catheterization, cholecysto-cholangiography and ultrasonography, the intraoperative and histo-pathologic confirmations being required. The increasing frequency of chronic cholecystitis makes necessary a more minute diagnosis and exigent surgical indication, pledges for long-term favourable results.
