|
|
The aim of this study was to compare the serum cholesterol level between patients with and without gallbladder stones. Serum cholesterol levels were analyzed in 126 patients with gallbladder stones and in 99 controls. The analysis by t-test showed that patients with gallbladder stones had higher serum cholesterol level than controls in both sexes. Patients with gallbladder stones over 40 years of age had higher serum cholesterol levels than controls of same age in both sexes, but, there were no differences in serum cholesterol level between the patients with gallbladder stones and the controls below 40 years of age.
