Cholethiasis refers to the presence of gallstones within the gallbladder or bile ducts. These stones can be composed of cholesterol, bilirubin, or a combination of both, and their formation is often attributed to an imbalance in the components of bile. Factors such as obesity, rapid weight loss, certain medications, and specific medical conditions can contribute to their development. Cholethiasis may lead to symptoms such as intense abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of symptoms and may involve dietary modifications, medication, or, in severe cases, surgical removal of the gallbladder.
Cholelithiasis (calculi or gallstones) usually form in the gallbladder from the solid constituents of bile and vary greatly in size, shape and composition.
Gallstones are hardened deposits of digestive fluid that can form in the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of your abdomen, just beneath the liver. The gallbladder holds a digestive fluid called bile that's released into the small intestine.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. DEFINITION
Cholelithiasis (calculi or gallstones) usually
form in the gallbladder from the solid
constituents of bile and vary greatly in size,
shape and composition.

3. INCIDENCE
•Uncommon in children and young adults
•Increasingly prevalent after age 40.
•The incidence increases thereafter to such an
extent that it has been estimated that by the age
of 75, one of every three people will have gall
stones

4. ANATOMY OF GALL BLADDER
• A pear-shaped, hollow, saclike organ, 7.5 to 10 cm (3-4 inch)
long, lies in a shallow depression on the inferior surface of
the liver, to which it is attached by loose connective tissue.
By Pankaj Bhagat
5. • The capacity of the gallbladder is 30 to 50 ml of bile.
• Its wall is composed largely of smooth muscle.
• The gallbladder is connected to the common bile duct by
the cystic duct
6. PHYSIOLOGY OF GALLBLADDER
• It act as a storage depot for bile
• Between meals, when the sphincter of Oddi is closed, bile produced
by the hepatocytes enters the gallbladder
• During storage, a large portion of the water in bile is absorbed
through the walls of the gallbladder, so that gallbladder bile is 5-10
times more concentrated than that originally secreted by the liver.
• When food enters the duodenum, the gallbladder contracts and the
sphincter of Oddi relaxes, allowing the bile to enter the intestine.
• This response is mediated by secretion of the hormone
cholecystokinin-pancreozymin (CCK-PZ) from the intestinal wall
7. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
Decreased bile acid synthesis
Increased cholesterol synthesis in the liver
Super saturation of bile with cholesterol
Formation of precipitates
Gall stones (Cholelithiasis)
Inflammatory changes (Cholecystitis)
8. TYPES OF GALLSTONES
• Cholesterol stones
• Pigment stones
• Mixed stones - the most common type. They are comprised of
cholesterol and salts.
• Cholesterol stones are usually yellow-green and are made primarily of
hardened cholesterol.
• Pigment stones are small, dark stones made of bilirubin. The exact
cause is not known. They tend to develop in people who have
cirrhosis, biliary tract infections, and hereditary blood disorders such
as sickle cell anaemia in which too much bilirubin is formed.
9. RISK FACTORS
• Age over 40 years
• Multiparous women
• Obesity
• Users of oral contraceptives
• Hormonal therapy
• Diabetic persons
• Patients with gastro-intestinal diseases
10. CLINICAL MANIFESTATION
• Epigastric distress
• Feeling of Fullness
• Abdominal distention
• Vague pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen
• Distress may follow a meal high in fried or fatty foods
• Pain and biliary colic
• Fever
• Palpable abdominal mass
• Biliary colic with excruciating upper right abdominal pain that radiates to the back or right abdominal
pain and radiates to the back or right shoulder, associated with nausea and vomiting and is noticeable
several hours after a heavy meal
• Constant pain, restless in all position
• Jaundice
• Obstruction of the flow of bile into the duodenum results in
• Yellow colour skin and mucous membrane
11. CLINICAL MANIFESTATION Contd…..
• Marked itching of the skin
• Changes in urine and stool colour
• A very dark colored urine
• Grayish, like putty, and usually described as “clay-colored” stool.
• Vitamin deficiency
• Obstruction of bile flow also interferes with absorption of the fat-soluble vitamins A,D,E,
and K
• If gallstone continues to obstruct the duct
• Abscess
• Necrosis
• Perforation
• Generalized peritonitis

13. MEDICAL MANAGEMENT
• Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)
• Chenodeoxycholic acid (chenodiol or CDCA)
The mechanism of action is the inhibition of liver synthesis and
secretion of cholesterol, thereby desaturating bile. Existing stones can
be decreased in size, small stones dissolved and new stones
prevented from forming (6-12 months therapy)

butyl ether
•A catheter and instrument with basket
•Extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy (ESWL)
