Journal Title: Journal of Surgery : Concepts & Practice - Year 2023, Vol 28, Issue 2

Abstract

Gallstone is a common surgical disease. The factors which related to intestine during the process of gallstone formation have attracted increasing attention. The main factors affecting the formation of cholesterol gallstone including cholesterol absorption, bile acid concentration, gut microbiota changing, are all related to the intestine. A correct understanding of the factors related to intestine during gallstone formation is helpful for the prevention and treatment of gallstone disease. In future, different targets related to intestine may play an important role in both prevention of gallstone disease and post-cholecystectomy management.
