Abstract
Cholesterolosis is an uncommon pathologic finding of the gallbladder. The etiopathogenesis is not yet clear but it is proposed that it occurs due to increased cholesterol uptake from supersaturated bile. One must try to make a preoperative diagnosis by careful ultrasonography. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard treatment in symptomatic cases whereas asymptomatic patients can be treated conservatively as a case of functional dyspepsia.
