Cholecystitis

Definitions

Terms Definitions
Cholecystitis Cholecystitis is an inflammatory disease of the gallbladder.
Acute cholecystitis Acute cholecystitis is an acute inflammatory disease of the gallbladder, most often attributable to gallstones.[1][2]
Acute calculous cholecystitis Acute calculous cholecystitis is an acute inflammatory disease of the gallbladder in the presence of cholelithiasis.[1]
Acute acalculous cholecystitis Acute acalculous cholecystitis is an acute necroinflammatory disease of the gallbladder in the absence of cholelithiasis and has a multifactorial pathogenesis.[3]
Chronic cholecystitis Chronic cholecystitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gallbladder with histological evidence of chronic inflammation like large range of related inflammatory epithelial changes including mononuclear infiltrate, fibrosis, thickening of muscular layer, dysplasia, hyperplasia and metaplasia.[4]
