Overview
Common risk factors in the development of calculous cholecystitis (cholelithiasis) include female gender, increasing age, obesity, pregnancy, hormonal therapy in women, and sickle cell disease. Common risk factors in the development of acalculous cholecystitis include AIDS, diabetes mellitus, major surgery, burns, sepsis, and long term total parenteral nutrition use.
Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of acute calculous cholecystitis include advancing age, female gender, obesity, and family history. Long periods of fasting, total parental nutrition (TPN), weight loss are the common risk factors for the development of acute acalculous cholecystitis.
