Abstract
The possibility of a link between vagotomy and gallstones was explored in a personal series. The number of patients found to have gallstones 1 to 10 years after vagotomy was about what one would expect in any group of persons of this age. A prospective rather than a retrospective study would be a better test.Keywords
