Cholelithiasis in Children

Abstract

Review of 367 cases of cholelithiasis in children from the literature and our experience showed that 81% of these patients has no evidence of hemolytic anemia. Oral cholecystograms were diagnostic of cholelithiasis in approximately 70% of these cases. Plain film studies were found to be of diagnostic value as a high percentage of gallstones were visible on plain radiographs of the abdomen.
