[Comparison of the chemical composition of bile calculi in the gallbladder and in bile ducts].
After a brief survey of the literature and description of the methods of the study the results are presented of macroscopic, microscopic and chemical analysis of bile calculi obtained during operations from the gallbladder and bile ducts from patients with cholelithiasis. The results showed that cholesterol was the main component of the calculi and that age and sex had no effect on the chemical composition of the calculi: no significant differences were found in the composition of the gallbladder calculi as compared to the calculi from the bile ducts.
