Core Tip	Hepatolithiasis refers to the primary stones above the confluence of the left and right hepatic ducts, and its main component is brown bile pigment stones. Hepatolithiasis is a disease with regional characteristics. At present, there is no exact explanation for the etiology of hepatolithiasis. Studies at home and abroad suggest that it may be related to lifestyle, biliary bacterial infection, biliary parasite infection, biliary anatomical variation, gene mutation and abnormal gene expression and other factors.
