We evaluated 3846 patients with the complaints of upper abdominal pain and dyspepsia. Cholelithiasis was detected in 403 (10.5%) patients by upper abdominal ultrasonography. 282 of them women and 121 men. There was a medical history of cholecystectomy in 164 (4.3%) patients. Whilst the reason for cholecystectomy was acute cholecystitis in 75% of patients, 25% were asymptomatic.
