摘要

Cholelithiasis in children refers to cholelithiasis or choledocholithiasis in newborns,infants and adolescents,including a series of symptoms and complications related to stones.The incidence rate of cholelithiasis in children is far lower than that in adults.However,the detection rate of cholelithiasis in children has risen in recent years.The aetiology of cholelithiasis in children is complex,and the pathogenesis is still unclear.According to existing studies,cholelithiasis in children may be related to sex and hormones,obesity,drugs,haemolytic diseases,genetic factors,chemokines,abnormal biliary tract formation,ileal surgery,total parenteral nutrition and other factors.In addition,there is a large occurrence of idiopathic cholelithiasis in children with unknown aetiology.The clinical manifestations of cholelithiasis in children are not completely the same as those in adults,mainly due to the different ages and causes.At present,there is no consensus on the clinical treatment of cholelithiasis in children.Followup and observation,drug dissolution and surgical treatment are all treatment methods for children with cholelithiasis.This study reviewed the related literature reports of cholelithiasis in children and summarized the risk factors,clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treatment of cholelithiasis in children to improve the understanding,diagnosis,and treatment of cholelithiasis in children.
