Overview
Gallstone disease may be classified according to the chemical type of gallstone. In this way, there are 3 subtypes/groups: pure cholesterol, pure bilirubin stones and mixed.
Classification
- Gallstone disease may be divided into 3 subtypes/groups according to chemical analysis of gallstones :[1][2]
- Pure cholesterol
- Bilirubin
- Mixed or composite:
- Mixed cholesterol
- Calcium carbonate
- Calcium palmitate
- Calcium phosphate
- Black phosphate
