[Experience of the conservative treatment of the gallbladder cholesterosis in children].

Gallbladder cholesterosis (GBC) was described more than 150 years ago, but so far the disease remains unknown. With respect to children's age appear solitary works. The introduction of modern pediatric practice of the intrascopic research methods enabled us to objectively identify the pathological changes in the gallbladder wall. Many years of experience studying gallstone disease has shown that almost a third of children cholelithiasis combined with gallbladder cholesterosis. However, until cholecystectomy the last one was diagnosed in only 10% of children. Meanwhile, our experience in children observing with GBC showed that conservative therapy effective in childhood. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the clinical example of the possibility of conservative treatment of gallbladder cholesterosis in children.
