Background: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and factors associated with gallbladder stone in patients with predialysis chronic kidney disease.

Methods: This cross-sectional study retrospectively examined follow-up data of patients with chronic kidney disease between January 2015 and December 2020 at the Health Sciences University Antalya Training and Research Hospital who had undergone abdominal ultrasonography for any reason. Patients with gallbladder stone on abdominal ultrasonography and history of cholecystectomy due to gallbladder stone were identified as the gallstone group. The prevalence of gallbladder stone was determined according to disease stage. Patients with and without gallbladder stone were compared in terms of demographic and clinical characteristics and laboratory parameters that may be associated with the development of gallbladder stone.

Results: A total of 511 patients had chronic kidney disease (stages 3, 4, and 5 in 303 [59.3%], 176 [34.4%], and 32 [6.3%], respectively). The gallstone prevalence rates were 25.1%, 30.1%, and 46.9% in stage 3, 4, and 5 chronic kidney disease, respectively, and that in all the patients was 28.2% (95% CI: 24.3-32.3, P = .026). Logistic regression analysis revealed that increased age (odds ratio: 1.045; 95% CI: 1.027-1.063, P < .001) and decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (odds ratio: 0.974; 95% CI: 0.956-0.991, P = .004) were associated with gallbladder stone.

Conclusion: The prevalence of gallbladder stone was high in the predialysis patients with chronic kidney disease and increased with increasing disease stage. High age and low estimated glomerular filtration rate were associated with gallbladder stone formation.

Rationale: Peritoneal mucinous cystadenoma is rare in the clinic, lacks specific clinical manifestations, tumor markers, and imaging features, and is easily misdiagnosed and missed. Clinical practitioners should maintain a high level of vigilance. Here, we report a case of laparoscopic peritoneal mucinous cystadenoma stripping to improve our understanding of the disease.

Background: Gallstone disease (GSD) is a prevalent gastrointestinal disorder, few studies have examined the combined effects of dietary and lifestyle factors on GSD. This study aims to investigate the relationship between oxidative balance score (OBS) and GSD, and explores the potential mediating role of oxidative stress.

Methods: Cross-sectional data from 6,196 participants in the NHANES 2017-2020 were analyzed.

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography combined with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy for the removal of large gallbladder stones: a pilot study.

Background: Endoscopic gallbladder-preserving cholecystolithotomy (EGPC) has become an alternative option for treating cholecystolithiasis. However, developing a new method of EGPC in which the gallbladder wall is not damaged remains a challenge. This study introduced a new EGPC method called endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL), which preserves the integrity of the gallbladder wall in the treatment of cholecystolithiasis complicated with choledocholithiasis.

Gallstones are among the most frequent hepatobiliary conditions. Although in most cases, they remain asymptomatic, they can cause complications and, in such cases, invasive treatments like endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) or cholecystectomy are required. Here, we present the results of genetic testing of a single family with a high incidence of symptomatic gallstones and cholestatic liver phenotypes.

Background: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has become the gold standard management for patients who present with common bile duct stone (CBDS). Although laparoscopic cholecystectomy is generally recommended for patients who have CBDS clearance, there is still a significant proportion of patients who are managed expectantly. Our study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of expectant management (EM) versus prophylactic cholecystectomy after initial endoscopic removal of CBDS.
