In the years 1957-1975 we found out of 13336 autopsies in a medium-sized urban general hospital 912 cases of cirrhosis of the liver. In comparison these persons with sections of non-cirrhotic controls the frequency of gallstones was neither for the total group (33.9%) nor for the males (27.1%) significantly raised. Only in the female subgroup of cirrhotic patients we could demonstrate a significantly increased frequency of gallstones (43.5%) in comparison to the female control group (38.3%). With regards to all kinds of predominantly lithogenous alterations of the gallbladder (concrements, chronic cholecystitis, cholecystectomy) we found for the cirrhotic group and its subgroups a significant positive coincidence of both diseases. The female to male ratio for the frequency of cholelithiasis and for all kinds of lithogenous alterations of the gallbladder was 1.6:1 for the cirrhotic group and the controls.
