Cholecystitis may be classified into acute and chronic forms, depending on the timing of presentation and duration.  Cholecystitis may also be classified into calculous and acalculous forms, depending on the cause. Other variants of cholecystitis include xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis, emphysematous cholecystitis, eosinophilic and lymphoeosinophilic cholecystitis.
 
Chronic cholecystitis may be classified according to causes into two major subtypes: Acute calculous cholecystitis and acute acalculous cholecystitis.

==Classification==
Cholecystitis can be classified depending upon acuity as:
* Acute cholecystitis
* Chronic cholecystitis
Cholecystitis can be classified based upon the cause as as:
* Calculous cholecystitis (58%)
* Acalculous cholecystitis (42%)<ref name="urlAcute acalculous cholecystitis - Surgical Treatment - NCBI Bookshelf">{{cite web |url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK6881/#A2780 |title=Acute acalculous cholecystitis - Surgical Treatment - NCBI Bookshelf |format= |work= |accessdate=2012-08-20}}</ref>
