Summary

Gall stone disease is more common in patients with cirrhosis. This association has been well established in different studies. Among the various factors which predispose a patient with gall stone disease to have associated liver cirrhosis, genetics also plays an important role.

This study aims to do a genetic panel-based analysis of genes which are involved in cholestasis to find any association between liver cirrhosis and gall stone disease.

Patients with history of gall stone or history of cholecystectomy done for gall stone disease will be evaluated for the presence of liver cirrhosis by fibroscan and ultrasonography. Those patients with cirrhosis and without cirrhosis will undergo a panel based genetic test for the common cholestasis genes and multivariate analysis will be done for variants associated with lithogenesis and cirrhosis.
