Patients with multiple cholesterol gallbladder stones have been found to be at a higher risk for the recurrence of gallstones after successful nonsurgical treatment than those with a solitary stone. Cholesterol gallstone recurrence, like primary gallstone formation, probably involves a triple defect

## Maximilians-Univer sit,it Mfinchen Summary. There is experimental evidence that inhibition of cyclooxygenase with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may decrease cholesterol gallstone formation and mitigate biliary pain in gallstone patients. The mechanisms by which NSAIDs exert these effect
Many studies have demonstrated that gallbladder bile (but not hepatic bile) of animals or patients with cholesterol gallstones contains higher protein concentrations than does gallbladder bile of control patients without stones or with pigment stones. The underlying defect has not been elucidated. T

## I We investigated whether bile concentration influenced cholesterol saturation index or nucleation time of cholesterol monohydrate crystals in a large number of gallbladder bile samples. Pigment stone patients never had cholesterol crystals in their fresh biles, and nucleation time was always l
