“…In a study, Ferreira et al, found, in a group of patients studied by him, that 9% had diabetes and of these patients, approximately 54% had gallstones, a number considered high for this group. Regarding age, Coelho et al found an average of 59.9 years old [3] [17]. In the results found for patients with cholelithiasis, there was a predominance of women, similar to the study of Nakai et al, in which the frequency of cholelithiasis was 23.8% of women versus 15.5% of men; 14.6% women versus 6.7% men and 26.4% women versus 14.7% men, respectively [5].…”

“…The literature reports higher incidence of gallstone disease in diabetic patients, although this fact may be related to the dietary habits of people with diabetes, the common overweight in this condition or old age, rather than the diabetes itself. However, the autonomic neuropathy, when installed, could be responsible for lithiasic tendency in this group of patients [17].…”

“…No Brasil, estudos de prevalência de colelitíase na população geral são escassos (Ferreira et al, 2004). Um estudo prévio analisou 500 pacientes, que procuraram o serviço de ultrassonografia do Hospital Universitário Presidente Dutra da Universidade Federal do Maranhão para verificar sintomas não relacionados à vesícula biliar, por meio de ultrassonografia e encontrou frequência de 18,4% de colelitíase incluindo no cálculo as pessoas previamente submetidas à colecistectomia (Torres et al, 2004).…”
