dc.description.abstractGangetic plains are known to have a very high incidence of cholelithiasis, the eiopathogenesis of which cannot be ascertained. Aim: to conduct a study to find a correlation, if any between the incidence of gallstone disease and the serum Iron and serum Calcium levels of patients and compare it with controls. Methods: 50 patients and 50 controls were taken and serum Iron and serum Calcium of both were evaluated. The distribution of age, sex and gender were taken as factors. Results and conclusion: The number of female patients was higher than the males but no strong association could be proven in the study. Among the symptoms dyspepsia had the highest incidence but could not be taken as a reliable marker for the diagnosis of cholelithiasis clinically. Hence, ultrasonography remains a very important tool for the diagnosis of the diasease .The role of serum Iron and serum Calcium in the etiopathogenesis could not be established. There was however a strong correlation of previous surgery in the formation of new gallstones .The family history was a strong factor for the formation of new gallstone disease however, the association was not established in this study. Gallstone disease had stronger association with anaemia than with serum Serum Iron. Calcium levels were comparable between the cases and the controls.en_US
