Abstract: This paper addresses cholelithiasis, a condition characterized by the formation of gallstones in the gallbladder, focusing on key aspects of formation, diagnosis, and treatment. Through a literature review, it examines conservative management using ursodeoxycholic acid to dissolve cholesterol stones, and surgical intervention via laparoscopic cholecystectomy, which is the standard treatment for symptomatic or complicated cases. The efficacy of cholangiography, a technique for intraoperative visualization of the bile ducts, is also explored, highlighting X-ray cholangiography and fluorescent cholangiography as alternatives. The study further discusses the use of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) to evaluate functional recovery and quality of life after surgery. It concludes that treatment choice depends on the severity of symptoms, characteristics of the stones, and patient preferences, with laparoscopic cholecystectomy being an effective option for most cases.
