Abstract
A unique case of hepatolithiasis associated with cholangiocarcinoma is described. The intrahepatic calculi consisted mainly of cholesterol rather than calcium bilirubinate. A bacteriological study of the intrahepatic and gallbladder bile was negative, though bacterial infection of the bile duct has been considered a main factor responsible for formation of intrahepatic calculi.Keywords
